Package: libparse-debianchangelog-perl Version: 1.2.0-11 Severity: minor Tags: Patch Upstream
Dear Maintainer,
The Parse::DebianChangelog manpage contains a table which was
formatted as a "verbatim paragraph" i.e. "First character [is] a space
or a tab". However some character still are escaped using C<> and E<>
which is, by definition, rendered literally. And the resulting table
is pretty ugly.
The patch attached salvages this and also converts the tab characters to
spaces to avoid any ambigousity. Please apply when conventient. And
perhaps convenience might by achieved by re-visiting the sentence
"Parse::DebianChangelog parses Debian changelogs as described in the
Debian policy (version 3.6.2.1 at the time of this writing)." Perhaps it
can be safely upgraded to 3.9.8? That would avoid any confusion whether
the module still reflects the current policy.
Cheers, and thanks for all your work
Christoph
