Bug#467019: off-by-one error in debian-changelog-line-too-long (80 column check)



Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.45
Severity: normal

The following check:

W: nsis: debian-changelog-line-too-long line 3
N:
N:   The given line of the latest changelog entry is over 80 columns. Such
N:   changelog entries may look poor in terminal windows and mail messages
N:   and be annoying to read. Please wrap changelog entries at 80 columns
N:   or less where possible.

is triggered when lines are exactly 80 char, not necessarily "over 80 columns"
as it says.
