Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" [WWW] http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.

We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at [WWW] http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures

At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!

Can you please explain what you don't understand about my bug report? It is pretty simple: the package description of autogen is not line wrapped. In other words, the package description is a single line, and does not contain line breaks as it should.

[Pascal De Vuyst (pascal-devuyst)]

Don't see any problem here: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz includes line breaks for autogen package.

[Reuben Thomas (rrt)]

Indeed, seems to have been fixed since I reported the problem.

[Pascal De Vuyst (pascal-devuyst)]

Closing then.
