Hi folks,
thanks to the pointer. This sounds not so nice. I'll investigate if
there is a known fix (for make, dpkg, anything). Once I know more
about the issue, I will get back to you and make a proposal as to how
to resolve this (update/fix make, update/fix dpkg/debconf, downgrade
make via epoch, or something else...).
Cheers,
Max
