Summary: linux_make/debian/control unparseable (extra newline)

Initial Comment:
The latest revision of linux_make/debian/control - http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/packages/linux_make/debian/control?r1=14772&r2=15101 - added an extra newline mid-file. With that newline, my system (Ubuntu natty) complains:

dpkg-deb: warning: parsing file '/home/jacob/src/pd-extended-git/packages/linux_make/build//DEBIAN/control' near line 9 package 'pd-extended':
 missing description
dpkg-deb: error: parsing file '/home/jacob/src/pd-extended-git/packages/linux_make/build//DEBIAN/control' near line 31:
 several package info entries found, only one allowed

Having removed that newline, I was able to build a package successfully.
