Control: reassign 822293 tcllib
Control: found 822293 1.18-dfsg-1
Control: retitle 822293 uuid broken in tcllib when /sbin not in PATH
The UUID generation routines in tcllib 1.18 add in information from
nettool about the network information to help generate unique UUIDs.
However nettool shells out to ifconfig without a path. As ifconfig is in
/sbin this makes UUID generation broken for the typical user. In
particular this breaks password-gorilla from being able to save new
passwords.
Either nettool needs fixed to include the path to sbin (probably best)
or the uuid package should stop using it.
