Package: libsensors4
Version: 1:3.0.1-2
Severity: normal

Labels are used from the last matched section, while compute lines are
used from the first section, when reading /etc/sensors3.conf.

This means you can't simply add one section for a new board - you
either have to add the labels in a section before the other matches,
and the computes in a section after, or you have to delete the
existing matches and duplicate any statements that still need to
apply.  The old libsensors always used the last statements.

This breaks conversion from an old sensors.conf, because the conversion
program does not know this, and I believe the behavior is probably a bug
anyway, since it makes very little sense to read the configuration file
this way.
