Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.10.27
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/dpkg-name
Hi,
I'm using dpkg-name from inside a "su - user -c ....", which means
that /dev/stderr is owned by root and inaccessible to user. In case of
an error dpkg-name then gets a permission denied for /dev/stderr.
Please change dpkg-name to use the already open FD 2 instead of
reopening stderr:
stderr () {
- echo "${prog}: $@" >/dev/stderr;
+ echo "${prog}: $@" >&2;
}
MfG
Goswin
