Bug squashing new release of the Linux dpkg Software Report

Once again I have been polishing the code to the dpkg Software Report script set, and have finally gotten the list formatting routines working correctly. There are a few lists that still do not format correctly, but they are due to the package maintainer entering the textual representation of those list structures in their Description sections in an incorrect format that can not be accommodated by the software report script set.

I have written to the software package's maintainers for those packages whose lists do not format correctly, and advised them of their error. Hopefully they will heed my advisory, and correct their Description section entries to correct the problem.

I made a couple of other bug fixes while I have been working on the scripts, and if you have downloaded the Linux dpkg Software Report before 1-30-2009 you should re-download the latest .gz file from Ray's Liinks, and install this newest version on your system to get the best experience out of your use of the Linux dpkg Software Report.
