It does look like a problem with either the changes file or the sources
file. Sometimes this can happen if zip file is unpacked with a zip
utility that thinks that the file is supposed to be a "text" file, so
adds line separator characters. I think has happened to people on Mac
in the past, although I do not remember the solution.
