Sure; my current /var/lib/dpkg/available file is here:

  http://www.gerg.ca/cthulhu.gerg.ca-var-lib-dpkg-available.gz

If I download and uncompress this file I can reproduce the problem:

  $ wget http://www.gerg.ca/cthulhu.gerg.ca-var-lib-dpkg-available.gz
  $ gunzip cthulhu.gerg.ca-var-lib-dpkg-available.gz
  $ grep-dctrl blah cthulhu.gerg.ca-var-lib-dpkg-available
  grep-dctrl: cthulhu.gerg.ca-var-lib-dpkg-available:15510: expected a colon.

Thanks for the quick response, and thanks for grep-dctrl in general!

        Greg
