--- Begin Message ---Package: dpkg Version: 1.13.22 Severity: minor Hi, I always wondered which scheme dpkg follows when installing packages and writing the "Setting up ..." lines. Sometimes, empty lines are interspersed. Looking into the code, the reason is in src/configure.c where a putchar('\n'); is done when maintainer_script_installed() returns != 0. Maybe someone wanted to make sure that after execution of maintainer scripts, a proper CR is done? On the other hand side, all the other invocations of maintainer_script_installed() (including the "post-installation" ones like the above one) don't handle it that way. Removing the if(){} around the maintainer_script_installed() including the putchar() seems to fix the issue. Or did I miss something?
