Package: lilypond-doc Version: 2.16.2-2 Followup-For: Bug #693238 This is a rather annoying bug.
The file causing the mischief is /var/lib/doc-base/documents/lilypond There's nothing obviously wrong with it, it passes install-docs -v -c without error. The Text entry is Format: Text Files: /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/*.txt* /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/Documentation/*.txt* /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/Documentation/*/*.txt* The entry appears to be formatted correctly, wildcard * is ok, a space is given between each item. I suspect the error may arise due to the fact that the text files are only in html/Documentation/*, not in html/* or html/Documentation/*/* e.g. $ ls /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/*.txt* /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/Documentation/*.txt* /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/Documentation/*/*.txt* ls: cannot access /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/*.txt*: No such file or directory ls: cannot access /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/Documentation/*/*.txt*: No such file or directory /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/Documentation/DEDICATION.txt /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/Documentation/ly-grammar.txt.gz /usr/share/doc/lilypond/html/Documentation/THANKS.txt.gz I think it must be those file-existence errors "No such file or directory" that are triggering the bug. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.11-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages lilypond-doc depends on: ii dpkg 1.17.1 ii install-info 5.2.0.dfsg.1-1 Versions of packages lilypond-doc recommends: ii lilypond-doc-html 2.16.2-2 ii lilypond-doc-pdf 2.16.2-2 Versions of packages lilypond-doc suggests: ii lilypond 2.16.2-2 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
