I think it belongs in section "issues.dbk": Sometimes, changes introduced in a new release have side-effects we cannot reasonably avoid, [...] Ideally it should be self-contained to help people working in a setting without access to the Internet but with access to a Debian mirror. How about something like the following? <section id="dpkg-set-selections"> <title><command>dpkg --set-selections</command> changes</title> <para> The <command>dpkg --set-selections</command> command is now aware of the machine architecture of packages it selects and can only set the state for known packages. Therefore an up-to-date <filename>available</filename> database is needed for the command to be useful. </para> <para> To update the <filename>available</filename> database on an <systemitem role="package">apt</systemitem>-based system, run <command>sync-available</command> command from the <systemitem role="package">dctrl-tools</systemitem> package. See the <ulink url="&url-wiki;Teams/Dpkg/FAQ">dpkg FAQ</ulink> for more information. </para> </section> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
