Package: gnuradio
Version: 3.5.3.2-1

gnuradio's debian/control has

<comments>
<blank line>
<actual debian/control contents>

By policy, blank lines separate paragraphs, comments are discarded, so we end up
with an empty first paragraph. Policy, however, requires that the *first*
paragraph contains essential package information (Policy 5.2).

The blank line should be removed or a comment marker should be inserted.

The current setup breaks at least pbuilder's build-dependency parsing, which
relies on this fact.

Best,
Michael
