Package: httptunnel
Version: 3.3+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Please broaden the description part debian/control as follows:

    Description: Tunnels a data stream in HTTP requests.
     Creates a bidirectional virtual data stream tunnelled in
     HTTP requests. The requests can be sent via a HTTP proxy
     if so desired.
     .
+    This can be useful for users behind restrictive firewalls. If WWW
+    access is allowed through a HTTP proxy, it's possible to use
+    httptunnel and, say, telnet or PPP to connect to a computer
+    outside the firewall.
