Bug#362142: Should remove "imake uses..." paragraph from xutils-dev long description



Package: xutils-dev
Version: 1:1.0.1-3
Severity: minor

Hello,

Both xutils and xutils-dev binary packages have the following paragraph
in their long descriptions:

 imake uses the C preprocessor (cpp) as a macro processor.  The GNU C
 preprocessor's "-traditional" support misbehaves in early releases of the GCC
 3.3 series; therefore, this package conflicts with those versions.

This paragraph is no longer accurate.  xutils-dev does not currently Conflict
against anything.  I think the paragraph should probably be removed.
