This is non-sense: You can see the bug above; so, it is not a question of risk, it is a fact. And note that you confirmed the bug. The reason is that the dependency is obviously not sufficient, as /usr/share/man/man7/path_resolution.7.gz is not present in manpages 2.49-1. You need a *versioned* dependency to make sure that manpages is recent enough. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
