Package: devscripts
Version: 2.12.5
Severity: important
"wrap-and-sort" silently removes all comments from debian/control.
This is unacceptable as debian/control may contain important comments and/or 
commented binary package(s).
Even worse "wrap-and-sort" drops legitimate packages.
Consider the following fragment from debian/control:
	Breaks:
	# some-library (>= 1.8) is needed to avoid random crashes in application
	  some-library (<< 1.8)
"wrap-and-sort" drops the entire contents of Breaks section above.
Regards,
Dmitry.
