Bug#693589: lintian: false positive: missing insignificant whitespace can cause dbg-package-missing-depends
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.10.2
Severity: normal
In debian/control I had a tcpflow-dbg package defined with this:
Depends: ${misc:Depends}, tcpflow(= ${binary:Version})
The missing space between 'tcpflow' and '(' caused lintian to report
dbg-package-missing-depends even though the packaging tools themselves generated
the dependency correctly.
