Package: aptitude
Version: 0.7.2-1
Severity: minor

Hi!

This is something that has slightly annoyed me for a while. :) Whenever
a package has debtags data shown through the Tags field, there is an
inserted blank line before it and either the Description or Homepage
fields (if the latter is present). Like this:

,---
i    --\ aptitude                unstabl           0.7.2-1        0.7.2-1
  Description: terminal-based package manager
    aptitude is a package manager with a number of useful features, including: a
    mutt-like syntax for matching packages in a flexible manner, dselect-like
    persistence of user actions, the ability to retrieve and display the Debian
    changelog of most packages, and a command-line mode similar to that of
    apt-get.

    aptitude is also Y2K-compliant, non-fattening, naturally cleansing, and
    housebroken.
