Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.11
Severity: minor
File: /usr/bin/debcheckout

debcheckout's error messages use more than 80 columns, making them
wrap on an 80-column terminal.  For example:

$ debcheckout sabayon
No repository found for package 'sabayon', a Vcs-* field is missing in its 
source
record (see Debian Developer's Reference 4.10.4 and/or Bug#391023).
If you know that the package is maintained via a Version Control System consider
asking the maintainer to expose such information.

The first line has 81 characters, and the third line has 80.

Please word-wrap the messages to fewer than 80 columns.  Conventions
used in other software suggest 78 columns or 72 columns.
