Package: ruby-debian
Followup-For: Bug #585448

I recently upgraded from Squeeze and also got hit by this bug.

Since this bug usually only show up when upgrading to Wheezy and normaly
doesn't affect Squeeze, should I reopen it against Wheezy?

I believe that this bug really should be considered as release-critical
for Wheezy, as it prevent upgrading.

I've upgraded using 'apt-get upgrade' followed by 'apt-get dist-upgrade',
and the only way to complete the installation was to either remove
apt-listbugs or apply by hand the proposed patch.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=43;filename=dpkg-ruby.patch;att=1;bug=585448

I've done the latter and the patch worked fine for me.

The patch is trivial and fix a real bug, and more importantly it is
necessary to allow upgrading to Wheezy, so I think it should be included
in a point-release *before* the release of Wheezy.

Thank you for your time.
