Package: lynx-cur Version: 2.8.8dev.9-2 Severity: normal Hi!
I have system which was installed with Debian Slink in 2000, upgraded to then-frozen Potato and has since been kept at a daily updated Sid. The lynx and lynx-ssl packages have been installed since day 1, which may be the cause for this bug. During the postinst of lynx-cur I get: ----------------------8<---------------------------------------------- Setting up lynx-cur (2.8.8dev.9-2) ... update-alternatives: error: alternative path /usr/bin/lynx doesn't exist. dpkg: error processing lynx-cur (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of lynx: lynx depends on lynx-cur (>= 2.8.8dev.9-2); however: Package lynx-cur is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing lynx (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured configured to not write apport reports configured to not write apport reports Errors were encountered while processing: lynx-cur lynx ----------------------8<---------------------------------------------- This erro is correct, there is no /usr/bin/lynx, but a lynx.nossl: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1382956 21. Jun 06:10 /usr/bin/lynx.nossl Because: oweh@ds9:~$ dpkg-divert --list | grep lynx diversion of /usr/bin/lynx to /usr/bin/lynx.nossl by lynx-ssl diversion of /usr/share/man/man1/lynx.1.gz to /usr/share/man/man1/lynx.nossl.1.gz by lynx-ssl Since Woody was the last Debian version to include lynx-ssl and this package is long gone, I suspect an error in the postrm of the old lynx-ssl package which failed to remove the diversion.
