Package: postgresql-common
Version: 41
Severity: important
Tags: patch
A recent change in lsb-base 3.0-15 causes the postinst to fail. The
failure is silent, but a little shell tracing reveals the problem:
++ sh /usr/share/postgresql-common/supported-versions
+ type -p lsb_release
++ lsb_release -is
+ DISTRO=Debian
++ lsb_release -rs
+ RELEASE=unstable
+ case "$DISTRO" in
+ lsb_debian unstable
+ case "$1" in
+ echo 'Unknown Debian release: unstable'
+ exit 1
+ SUPPORTED='Unknown Debian release: unstable'
dpkg: error processing postgresql-common (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
postgresql-common
Here's a patch that works in sid. It's not a complete patch; I think
some special handling may be needed for etch, too.
