remove the need to call dpkg-vendor
** Changed in: aptdaemon (Ubuntu)
Status: Triaged => Fix Committed
** Changed in: aptdaemon (Ubuntu)
Status: Fix Committed => In Progress
** Patch added: "fix_dpkg_dev_dependency.patch"
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptdaemon/+bug/1066457/+attachment/3400047/+files/fix_dpkg_dev_dependency.patch
** Description changed:
+ There is a missing dependency on the dpkg-dev package by aptdaemon. The
+ dpkg-vendor command of the dpkg-dev package is used to detect if the
+ system is a Debian or Ubuntu derivate. The result is used to select the
+ correct lintian profile which is used to check the quality of local
+ packages before installing them.
+
+ If dpkg-dev isn't installed (by default it isn't installed) the test
+ package quality fails and every package is reported as beeing of bad
+ quality.
+
+ Unfortunately dpkg-dev is installed on nearly every developer system and
+ the build system which is used for the unit tests.
+
+ Test case: Install a local package file on a fresh installed system
+
+
+ Original Message:
+
I tried to install Teamviewer 7 in ubuntu 12.10 64bit with the 64bit deb
package downloaded from TW site, but Software Center says that this deb
was a bad package. Also tried to install from gdeb but nothing.
