From 1821bae841955f60bf7f08e240c0acad4e18c36d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon McVittie Date: Mon, 1 Jul 2013 13:42:45 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] debian/control: add a longer Description This paragraph from the bmaptool documentation on tizen.org matches what Debian packages typically have in their Description. The original description didn't really indicate why you would prefer bmaptool over alternatives like dd.
