Bdale, As can be seen in the bug report, the originally reported failure (against tar) has since been fixed with a change to dpkg.
Since then, two other proposals have been made: 1. Change the tar package to indicate: Breaks: dpkg-dev (<< 1.14.26) 2. Consider removing the debian patch to src/list.c Do you plan to do either or both of these? And can I help at all? Or is the bug ready to be closed as is? Just let me know what I can do to help here. -Carl
