I think this was caused by including the CVS version in the description field. Did not cause a problem on my machine, but I've removed it anyway.

If you checked out of CVS, a cvs update should fix it. Otherwise wait until the package is automatically rebuilt. In the meantime just delete the "Version: ..." from helptip.info.

In my case (drupal 5.23 & PHP 5.3.0 - not supported, I know !), I solved the same problem on different .info files by surrounding the description string with double quotation mark char.
