This should be fixed. As Andrew Pollock, I am not sure if /bin/zsh is supported as an alternative for /bin/sh. Also, as for Andrew, the problem seems confimed to the debconf call, so I am also reassigning this bug report to debconf and merging both. The same probably appplies to #465540 and #465541 Also please note that this may well be the same as zsh bug: [#351031] DEBCONF_USE_CDEBCONF - errors with /bin/zsh as /bin/sh originally submitted against debconf and later reassigned to zsh By the way, I am adding the error message I get when running dictionaries-common.postinst with /bin/zsh (no error message is added in your bug report): # LC_ALL=C ./dictionaries-common.postinst configure Can't exec "/usr/share/debconf/confmodule": Permission denied at /usr/share/perl/5.8/IPC/Open3.pm line 168. open2: exec of /usr/share/debconf/confmodule configure failed at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/ConfModule.pm line 59 -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
