Package: xcolorsel Version: 1.1a-14 Severity: minor I'm lazy, so I prefer to type /usr/doc instead of /usr/share/doc. Because of this, I generally make the former a symlink to the latter on machines that I administer. I believe this was supposed to be allowed.
The postinst script for the latest version of xcolorsel fails when it tries to do `rm -f /usr/doc/xcolorsel`, since (with /usr/doc as a symlink) that is a directory. Please check that /usr/doc/xcolorsel is a symlink before trying to remove it. The following line should be a suitable replacement. if [ -h /usr/doc/xcolorsel ] ; then rm -f /usr/doc/xcolorsel ; fi -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-k7 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages xcolorsel depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libice6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libsm6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Session Management ii libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxmu6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxp6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System printing extension ii libxpm4 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X pixmap library ii libxt6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii xaw3dg 1.5+E-10 Xaw3d widget set xcolorsel recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
