Cyril, Sorry I did not look in more detail at this earlier. Tristan Hill <s...@saticed.me.uk> suggested another plausible solution - writing the sed insructions to a temporary file and passing the file to sed via the -f argument. Anyway it definitely looks to me like the bug should be fixed in debhelper rather than xml-core. So I am reassigning it. Since this prevents upgrading at least one package I would stick by the severity, but unless you're willing to let upgrades for w3c-sgml-lib and w3c-markup-validator through I am not aware of any rush to fix it. That's why I thought a wheezy-ignore tag was appropriate. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJP+z1eAAoJELbE2bY7/+c8OqYQAMfklMjARPRS7+ZfmdFlorCm N14b7zE85XMYCTx+8sN4foDxCYtt/0XffM2Ma+BOlRQH/4EaMo5ky8D+3huvy1EU zrkyqM3xEi//MixpodYzpdUHI4+9ZV/+OpKpWhZtwSkhGb+iH0EKO6AVU36T+Mak L7j35cVfDngAM3WVreE/PaGy2BBkx12dP/k5UhO+wdzwc5mETRN24giBNHy//6iP M/TssuWqvYaoViGvcrVxHvLOd+jIDIN/YrLemwrPmEKv/nsZl96ateij+1ZseSdX UqFT/g6IrPdoAlJs40Z9fso/z8FpUOtzdu4OYw72Y/niSCdWAVOG+C8l6/xJuqnG AXUNJdVeZu/f40H9DA3brJ3XA2qvXrobTIKRPq9NCk0EEwQXAIFXxKgw0SVAgFOi sJkFPf2NAAieADYrpxMZ7MLnYBvQpsJH9vYskAF+7eQEm3Rx0rY/O2BsGhRnb3ec D+FQzvQc7akdg1uTlYUlDj93MbKLvahBOaUm3XAVdK6iW4cbp2p1v1HA1gT9CpHP iTzvREp0kOA0fUocwgidA8/NoYzNHedKhk3XEz9RGI4Lp5UJgaph35W5BYGf+F4a JAlTr7uIQBhHclqkOdA8DrwmrvCD9bcHqcrLt2N1mL4Bgva1pSJBcmif2lo5jbq8 sD8wT0LfmPzRbZtIpVCA =qkYd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
