Title:
  ubuntu-webapps-update-index fails to parse multiline fields

Status in libunity-webapps package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 13.04, unity-webapps-service 2.5.0~daily13.03.18-0ubuntu1

  I've packaged my webapp for http://www.rememberthemilk.com/. It is available through one of configured repositories.
  I'm expecting ubuntu-webapps-update-index to update available webapps database, but it fails to do it:

  ---
  $ /usr/bin/ubuntu-webapps-update-index
  ...
  ** Message: Investigating webapp: unity-webapps-rmilk

  ** (process:7279): WARNING **: Failed to parse metadata line ( Remember The Milk Webapp for Unity
  ), skipping package
  ---

  This happens because package description field is multi-line:

  $ apt-cache dumpavail
