Hello,
please apply this patch to the postinst script, otherwise
installation fails with:
(Reading database ... 293637 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking fp-compiler (from .../fp-compiler_2.0.0-1_i386.deb) ...
Setting up fp-compiler (2.0.0-1) ...
update-alternatives: slave link name /usr/share/man/man1/pc.1.gz duplicated
dpkg: error processing fp-compiler (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
fp-compiler
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Some errors occurred while unpacking. I'm going to configure the
packages that were installed. This may result in duplicate errors
or errors caused by missing dependencies. This is OK, only the errors
above this message are important. Please fix them and run [I]nstall
again
Press enter to continue.
as it tries to use 'fpc.1.gz' link name in /etc/alternatives, although
correct name (and one used by gpc) is 'pc.1.gz'.
Thanks,
Petr Vandrovec
