Dear Maintainer,
When rebuilding rsh-redone, the following message is output and the build fails.
dh_installalternatives: error: Alternative "/usr/bin/rsh-redone-rsh" for "rsh"
in debian/rsh-redone-client.alternatives does not exist in
debian/rsh-redone-client or is a directory
make: *** [debian/rules:16: binary] Error 25
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary subprocess returned exit status 2
Solved with the following patch.
--- a/usr/bin/dh_installalternatives
