Package: quilt Version: 0.48-6 Severity: normal The reason the auto-generated part of the manpage fails is because the Makefile rule that does the auto-generation uses bash syntax, but make runs sh, which is often dash these days, not bash.
Adding "SHELL=bash" to the top of Makefile.in and re-building should fix things. The more appropriate fix would be to get upstream to change things so the auto-generation does not use the $'...' syntax it currently uses. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_NZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages quilt depends on: ii bzip2 1.0.5-4 high-quality block-sorting file co ii diffstat 1.47-1 produces graph of changes introduc ii gettext 0.17-10 GNU Internationalization utilities ii patch 2.6-2 Apply a diff file to an original quilt recommends no packages.
