The message isn't being produced by dch directly, it's coming from: my $parser = new Parse::DebControl; my $deb822 = $parser->parse_file('debian/control', {stripComments => 'true'}); It's also generated using "warn" rather than an exception, so I'm not sure how easy trapping it inside dch would be. > Moreover, this debian/control could be considered as valid... If you believe the parsing is incorrect, then please clone or reassign this bug to libparse-debcontrol-perl; dch isn't doing the parsing itself.
