Bug#481954: debian-policy: C.1.4, C.1.8: minor typos

[Sandro Tosi <matrixhasu@gmail.com>]

Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.7.3.0
Severity: wishlist

Hello,
in §C.1.4 I can read:

     Its arguments are executables.  [1] for which shared library
     dependencies should be included in the binary package's control file.

I think the period is wrong, maybe something like:

     Its arguments are executables[1], for which shared library
     dependencies should be included in the binary package's control file.

Later on, we can see

            dpkg-shlibdeps -dDepends <program anotherprogram ...> \
                           -dRecommends <optionalpart anotheroptionalpart>

     and then in its main control file `debian/control':

            <...>
            Depends: ${shlibs:Pre-Depends}
            Recommends: ${shlibs:Recommends}
            <...>

but I think the Depends line should be "Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}" ("Pre-" removed).

In §C.1.8, I can read:

     This program can be used manually, but is also invoked by
     `dpkg-buildpackage' or `debian/rules' to set to set environment or
     make variables which specify the build and host architecture for the
     package building process.

but "to set to set" should be collapsed in a "to set" only.

Regards,
Sandro
