Is there already a bug report for this? Otherwise please clone this report, reassign it to odbcinst and retitle it. I would consider this as RC since it makes odbcinst unsuitable for use in maintainer scripts. There could be more packages affected ... this should list some of them: http://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=odbcinst.*-l+filetype%3Ashell > Therefore I changed again the prerm script to execute odbcinst setting the > ODBCSEARCH env var, which should override the options given in the command > line. > > I have prepared package with the intended fix, would you be so kind to test > it > again in your piuparts stuff? it's available temporarily here: > http://alioth.debian.org/~santa-guest/packages/virtuoso-odbcinst-bug/ > > If it's more convenient for you I could even upload it and hope for the best. I can easily test it before you upload it if you add a Packages file: cd .../virtuoso-odbcinst-bug ; dpkg-scanpackages . > Packages > for the record, I'm attaching the debdiff against the -2 version. Looks fine, but not tested, yet. The bug reference in the prerm script should better point to a bug reported against odbcinst.
