Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.14.11
Severity: normal

A typical value for Vcs-Cvs would be:

Vcs-Cvs: :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/shishi

(from the shishi package), but the current dpkg-source doesn't recognize
this field and produces the error message:

dpkg-source: warning: unknown information field 'Vcs-Cvs:' in input data in 
general section of control info file

Some experimentation reveals that the leading colon in the field content
is what's causing the confusion, although I haven't dug deeper into the
dpkg-source implementation to see why that would be.
