debian-glibc, I get problems install the glibc 2.3.1 package on HPPA becuase the postinst script sets "check" to empty after the call to sed fails. The call to sed fails because it's looking for files by the name of "$check" ... this should be the other way around as is indicated by the cvs diff.
Please make this change so users don't have to manually do so during an install of glibc 2.3.1 :) c.
