Package: dhelp Version: 0.6.18 Severity: normal When /etc/cron.weekly/dhelp runs each week, I get the following error message:
Error (383685): Illegal character ')' Error (383687): Dictionary key must be a name object /etc/cron.weekly/dhelp invokes some ruby scripts, so I'm not sure how to proceed with further debugging. I guess the bug must be in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb somewhere.
