Bug#317661: release action should not include Release



Package: apt-utils
Version: 0.5.28.6
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/apt-ftparchive

If the Release file already exists and is to be overwritten with
apt-ftparchive like so:

  apt-ftparchive release . >| Release

it will include hash sums of the Release file in the new one.
However, the Release file should not include an entry for the
Release file... or better: it would never verify.
