Bug#697433: Is the Package-List field necessary for uploads ?
Hello everybody,
the patch below was seconded by Russ and Guillem, and the discusssion
about documenting udebs was moved to http://bugs.debian.org/698030,
so I think I will apply the patch soon unless one reminds me a good
reason for not doing so.
Have a nice week-end,
