Most of these are obviously correct; thanks.
There's a few where the original is actually correct, or at least not
incorrect imho; specifically:
-Info: The maintainer address does not have whitespace between the name
+Info: The maintainer address does not have white space between the name
-Info: The source package's filename is not the same as the name given
+Info: The source package's file name is not the same as the name given
Finally:
-# Takes two predicate formulas and returns true iff the second can be
+# Takes two predicate formulas and returns true if the second can be
Given that the functions using iff in their descriptions all deal with
predicates, I suspect this is intentional. From FOLDOC:
<mathematics, logic> if and only if, i.e. necessary and
sufficient. For example, two figures are {congruent} iff one
can be placed over the other so that they coincide.
