Description Robert Booth 2022-01-04 23:15:16 UTC 
The comment documenting the frozen-files option in the /etc/dispatch-conf.conf file does not specify that the option takes a space-separated list.

Would it be possible to clarify this in the comment? For example:

# Space-separated list of frozen files for which dispatch-conf will 
# automatically zap updates
