Package: lintian
Severity: wishlist
$ dpkg-reconfigure nana
This is not dpkg install-info anymore, but GNU install-info
See the man page for ginstall-info for command line arguments
install-info: No dir file specified; try --help for more information.
zsh: exit 1 dpkg-reconfigure nana
This breaks unrelated software (dpkg-reconfigure -a).
That dpkg-reconfigure -a immediately aborts if reconfiguring a package
fails seems to be a (normal) bug in debconf.
To get a list of affected binary packages:
w3m
http://lintian.debian.org/tags/install-info-used-in-maintainer-script.html |
awk '/[(]binary[)]$/ {print $1}'
Extended description of this lintian tag is:
This script apparently runs install-info. Updating the
/usr/share/info/dir file is now handled automatically by triggers, so
running install-info from maintainer scripts is no longer necessary.
If debhelper generated the maintainer script fragment, rebuilding the
package with debhelper 7.2.17 or later will fix this problem.
Severity: normal, Certainty: possible
Could rebuilding them please be scheduled?
Could lintian maintainers please add this lintian tag to
data/output/ftp-master-nonfatal, although this shouldn't occur much in
future since debconf doesn't create this snippet anymore?
Regards
Carsten
