Acked-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind) <arnout@mind.be>

Checked that it is a whitespace-only change, and manually went over the entire
patch to see what really changed.

 Actually, the subject line should have been:

package: kill pointless double space at end of sentence

but that's a minor issue :-)

 Regards,
 Arnout

Well, it's not entirely incorrect.

English typography used to require there is a double-space (or two word
spaces, can't remeber the typographic name) between the full-stop and
the next sentence:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_stop#Spacing_after_a_full_stop

However, this usage has been gradually declining in favour of a single
space, but is till widely used, especially when submitting manuscripts.

Well, except for us Froggies, who only always used single-spacing. ;-)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
