Package: postgresql-common Version: 113 Severity: normal Hi,
when installing myspell dictionaries, postgresql-common gets triggered
to rebuild the postgres dictionaries. This makes dpkg
--compare-versions print a warning about a bad version.
With set -ex ; echo "$@" in
/var/lib/dpkg/info/postgresql-common.config:
$ LC_ALL=C sudo dpkg -i
/var/cache/apt/archives/myspell-de-de_20091006-4.2_all.deb

dpkg: version '/usr/share/myspell/dicts' has bad syntax: invalid character in
version number
The bad code is:
# at some points we obsolete major versions within unstable; force the
# obsoletion notifications when upgrading over those
if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl 71; then
db_fset postgresql-common/obsolete-major seen false
fi
I'm not sure how one is supposed to test version numbers in the config
script, but at least that code shouldn't run when triggered.
