Bug#105538: section C.2.3(in html format) has an incorrectly formated changelog example
package: debian-policy
version: 3.5.5.0
--
That format is a series of entries like this:
package (version) distribution(s); urgency=urgency
* change details
more change details
* even more change details
-- maintainer name and email address date
package and version are the source package name and version number.
--
The proper format, with proper spacing, is:
package (version) distribution(s); urgency=urgency
[optional blank line(s), stripped]
changelog details
[blank line(s), included in output of dpkg-parsechangelog]
changelog details
[optional blank line(s), stripped]
-- maintainer name and email address[2 spaces]date
Again, I am not sure how details -policy should be about things, as it makes
changing them difficult(for extension purposes)
