Package: dpkg
Version: 1.14.20
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
I accidentally used a | in conflicts (instead of depends) in a build
and this resulter in:
dpkg-gencontrol: internal error: The method merge_union() is only valid for
Dpkg::Deps::Simple
As discussed on IRC with Raphaël, this is a bit cryptic; perhaps the
error message could be improved to point out undefined usage of | in
conflicts.
Thanks
