Bug Description
Debian-style package descriptions are not quite plain text. <http://
As a result, /fmt:text-to-html on a package description produces results that include stray periods and too many line breaks. <https:/
Therefore, there should be a /fmt:package-
1. replace "\n .\n" with "\n\n"
2. replace "\n .<EOF>" with ""
3. replace "\n " with ""
4. call the /fmt:text-to-html code.

Any chance this could be quickly fixed? I'd like to see the descriptions cleaned up before linking to them from USNs.
