This bug was fixed in the package dpkg - 1.16.0~ubuntu1
---
dpkg (1.16.0~ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low
* Merge from git://git.debian.org/users/hertzog/dpkg.git
pu/multiarch/snapshot/20110225 for multiarch support. This brings us
up-to-date with dpkg 1.16.0-pre staged changes as well as pulling in
the current version of the multiarch branch from Raphael Hertzog.
* FFe: LP: #724637.
* Remaining changes:
- Set Ubuntu ppc64 optimisation to -O3.
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Fix realloc usage on compat scandir() implementation.
* Use DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE environment variable as package name on
dpkg-divert when no --package or --local options have been specified.
* Do not allow versions starting with non-digit when doing strict parsing,
warn otherwise.
* Update dpkg(1) to note that --status-fd output does not contain newlines
in error messages anymore (this was fixed in 1.15.0).
* Add a new --status-logger option to dpkg, similar to --status-fd but
instead invoke the command ourselves and feed the status information
to its standard input. Suggested by Raphaël Hertzog.
* Add missing space in update-alternative --set-selections output.
* Add missing options to update-alternative --help output.
* Count “conffile name is duplicated” for dpkg-deb warning count summary.
* Improve and clarify strings for translation. Closes: #604914
* Prefix all fatal error messages with “error: ”.
* Do not check presence of update-rc.d in the PATH in dpkg, as it's not
a program needed for dpkg correct operation.
* Fix dpkg -GEO options on multiple versions of the same packages.
Closes: #31141
* Propagate --admindir to programs run from maintainer scritpts.
Closes: #97076
* Do not fail when trying to remove the root directory. This will only
happen either on distributions where dpkg is a foreign package manager,
or on artificial dpkg databases.
* Always warn when parsing any package control data which does not have
an Architecture field except for status and status log files when
packages are not-installed or half-installed.
* By default reject installing packages w/o an Architecture field. They
now need --force-architecture, dpkg will still warn about them though.
* Fix build failure when passing --disable-nls to configure.
* Do not segfault on “dpkg -i --no-act”.
* Add missing semicolon to the vsnprintf() compat declaration.
Thanks to Robert Millan. Closes: #612203
* On install for Ubuntu adjust the i386 GNU cpu name in cputable.
Thanks to Colin Watson cjwat...@ubuntu.com. Closes: #611741
[ Raphaël Hertzog ]
* Fail properly when debian/source/format is empty. Closes: #600854
* Add new deb-src-control(5) manual page documenting the debian/control
file contained in source packages.
- it documents the X[SBC]- prefix. Closes: #476335
- it documents the VCS-* fields too. Closes: #483119
Thanks to Oxan van Leeuwen o...@oxanvanleeuwen.nl who wrote it
as part of the Google Code In program.
* Enhance dpkg-shlibdeps to not fail immediatly when a library is not found.
Instead continue and fail after all problems have been reported. Thanks
to Chris Baines cbain...@gmail.com for the patch. Closes: #596841
* Fix dpkg-source to not list Debian packaging files as modified
upstream files in Format 1.0 when unpacking to a non-standard
directory.
[ Jonathan Nieder ]
* Remove support for use of synchronous sync(2), due to its pernicious
side-effects and to ease maintenance.
[ Updated programs translations ]
* German (Sven Joachim).
* Portuguese (Miguel Figueiredo).
* Spanish (Javier Fernandez-Sanguino).
* Swedish (Peter Krefting).
[ Updated man page translations ]
* German (Helge Kreutzmann).
* Swedish (Peter Krefting).
[ Updated scripts translations ]
* German (Helge Kreutzmann).
* Swedish (Peter Krefting).
[ Updated dselect translations ]
* Spanish (Javier Fernandez-Sanguino).
