Package: reportbug Version: 4.8 Severity: normal I upgraded reportbug to the version in testing but I still have debsums from lenny. Now I get this message when I run reportbug:
There may be a problem with your installation of reportbug; the following problems were detected by debsums: Unknown option: ignore-permissions Try 'debsums --help' for more information. Do you still want to file a report [y|N|q|?]? This is caused by the fix to bugs #536576 and #539695: reportbug now needs at least version 2.0.47 of debsums. The version was added to the Suggests line, as reportbug doesn't depend on debsums but only suggests it, but unfortunately versioning doesn't work in the Suggests line. IIRC, the proper solution is to leave an unversioned Suggests and add a versioned Conflicts: debsums (<< 2.0.47) -- Package-specific info: [removed as it is not relevant] -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (400, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30.7-netfinity (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii apt 0.7.20.2+lenny1 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii python 2.5.2-3 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-reportbug 4.8 Python modules for interacting wit reportbug recommends no packages.
