This list looks a lot more comprehensive than the other. DESCRIPTION
is set to SUMMARY if otherwise left blank. SECTION isn't terribly
important, I never set it in recipes in my layers. DEPENDS is
important though and probably belongs in the list. Lastly, S has a
sensible default value which you don't usually need to override.

So I'd suggest using the above list, plus DEPENDS, subtract S.
