SUGGESTION

Please add a (warning?) check for "empty" DP: descriptions like this.

You mean like dpatch-missing-description?

If you have a specific concrete example of a situation where the existing checks are not flagging this correctly, then please provide that, preferably in the form of a source package (or a pointer to one if it's already in the archive).

Regards,

Adam
