Subject: aleph-doc is malformed

Date: Wed, 29 Sep 1999 19:16:16 -0400 (EDT)

Package: aleph-doc
Version: 0.2.0-1

I tried to run apt-get update and it failed with an error:

  Reading Package Lists... Error!
  E: Malformed Priority line
  E: Error occured while processing aleph-doc (NewVersion1)
  E: Problem with MergeList /var/state/apt/lists/http.us.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-i386_Packages
  E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

Looking at the Packages file, I see the Priority for this package is
"optionnal" instead of "optional" (note extra "n").

After editing the file it loaded correctly.

I've just uploaded some new aleph packages.
Sorry for the mess.
