Sure, that happens. What I mostly wondered: Why didn't the test suite
catch that second case? As far as I remember, Lintian has quite high
test coverage.

Then again, regarding your comment in my other bug report about the
broken lintian build, I suspect that there might be a test for this, but
the tests are currently not running properly, so they couldn't alert.

Hey, no problem! Bugs happen. You can't make an omelette without
breaking eggs. (Wo gehobelt wird, da fallen Späne. :-)

I actually stashed that fix in wml for now as the crash at least
showed me that it was obviously an incomplete fix.

Thanks again for a very prompt fix!

		Regards, Axel
