Ok... Description fixed. I have some questions about the other two items.
Ah... I updated lintian to testing and notice several errors. I'll fix them. I used to have one which I was not sure about. Lintian complains that symbolic links should be relative, but the link is from "/usr/share/doc/popfile/manual" to "/usr/lib/popfile/manual". Making it relative would make the link "more cryptic(?)". Should I still make it relative?
Should I add the closes to the list of changes for the last version of the package, or can I append it to the "Initial Release" line? Will the bug tracking system parse the whole file or just the changes list for the latest version?
