Bug #523329 reported by you has been fixed in the Git repository. You can see the changelog below, and you can check the diff of the fix at: http://git.debian.org/?p=dpkg/dpkg.git;a=commitdiff;h=7c75872 --- commit 7c75872f5cf43b98fc7facbe057c3f98d50a4172 Author: Raphael Hertzog <hert...@debian.org> Date: Thu Apr 9 18:35:10 2009 +0200 dpkg-source: don't die on SIGPIPE of uncompressors Modify Dpkg::Source::CompressedFile to not die when uncompressors processes (gunzip, bunzip, etc.) are killed by SIGPIPE. Recent tar versions close the pipe before having read everything sent by the uncompressor process when they encounter the end of the tar file. This was of course problematic for Dpkg::Source::Archive. This is a regression compared to etch's dpkg-source which dealt with SIGPIPE properly. The Dpkg::Source::Compressor::wait_end_process() function had to be extended to be able to forward options to Dpkg::IPC::wait_child(). diff --git a/debian/changelog b/debian/changelog index 79223b5..f813d13 100644 --- a/debian/changelog +++ b/debian/changelog @@ -1,5 +1,10 @@ dpkg (1.14.26) UNRELEASED; urgency=low + [ Raphael Hertzog ] + * Fix dpkg-source to not die when uncompressor processes are killed by + SIGPIPE due to tar closing the pipe without exhausting all the data + available.
