Bug#456405: lintian: Typo in stronger-dependency-implies-weaker Info
Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.41
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
T%he phrase "[...] Recommends as well as Recommends." in the Info field of
the stronger-dependency-implies-weaker check sounds strange. I think that
the patch attached below fixes this.
