Package: ippl Version: 1.4.14-4 Severity: grave Tags: patch Justification: Breaks upgrades
Hi! The most recent version of ippl includes a debconf note, but fails to call db_stop in the postinst script. As a result, depending on debconf setup, the postinst script does not terminate, and the whole upgrade process is stalled. Please either apply the trivial patch below, or consider dropping the debconf note entirely in favour of a NEWS.Debian item that to me seems more appropriate for the task. Regards, Daniel. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_DE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages ippl depends on: ii debconf 1.4.46 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii logrotate 3.7-2 Log rotation utility ii perl-base [perl5-base] 5.8.4-8 The Pathologically Eclectic Rubbis -- debconf information excluded
