Didn't you already file a bug against dpkg/patch for this, noticing that it it was patch-2.2 that caused this? Anyway, to help you with something else (see debian-bugs), I also tried to unpack xkobo, and only succeded after downgrading my patch-2.2 (unstable) to patch-2.1 (from bo). Probably the real bug is in dpkg, though. (sending this to the mailinglist in case other people still want to know this). -- joost witteveen, [EMAIL PROTECTED] #!/bin/perl -sp0777i<X+d*lMLa^*lN%0]dsXx++lMlN/dsM0<j]dsj $/=unpack('H*',$_);$_=`echo 16dio\U$k"SK$/SM$n\EsN0p[lN*1 lK[d2%Sa2/d0$^Ixp"|dc`;s/\W//g;$_=pack('H*',/((..)*)$/) -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
