Package: mandos-client
Version: 1.6.5-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

The mandos client hooks script for initramfs-tools calls
dpkg-architecture in order to find the right path to the mandos
plugins directory.

dpkg-architecture is in the package dpkg-dev. However, mandos-client
does not depend on that package.

Thus, if dpkg-dev is not installed, update-initramfs will always
fail.

This not only fails to get mandos-client running, but breaks
initramfs-tools, as after installing mandos-client, updating the
initramfs with update-intramfs will always fail.

mandos-client should either depend on dpkg-dev, or use some other
mechanism than dpkg-architecture to find the right path to its plugins
directory in /usr/lib/<arch>/mandos/
