Package: dpkg
Version: 1.3.14

If one unfinalizes a version with C-c C-e, and then uses C-c C-a, an extra
blank lines appear between changes.

Yves.

P.S.: BTW, the help message should say "Use C-c C-e" not "Use ^c^e", which
is not Emacs usage.

Actually, it shouldn't use either -- it should use the magic
substitution strings, which would cause the message to be displayed
not only in the correct format, but to have the correct content even
if the user had rebound the keys.  *Note (elisp)Keys in
Documentation::.  Isn't Emacs neat?
