Package: python3-editor
Version: 1.0.3-2
Severity: minor

In the python3-editor binary package description there is a missing
word, indicated by the presence of two consecutive spaces. In the
debian/control file ${EDITOR} appears. This syntax triggers theĀ 
dpkg-gencontrol tool to look for an EDITOR substvar, but since none
exists, it just replaces the construct with an empty string.
   
   $ apt-cache show python3-editor | grep '\b  \b'
    Editor first looks for the  environment variable.  If set, it uses
                              ^^
   
   $ chronic apt source python-editor
   $ grep 'Editor first looks' */debian/control
    Editor first looks for the ${EDITOR} environment variable.  If set, it uses
    ^^^^^^^^^^^
   
   $ chronic getbuildlog python-editor last-all
   
   $ grep gencontrol.*warning *.log
   dpkg-gencontrol: warning: package python3-editor: substitution variable 
${EDITOR} used, but is not defined
