Package: apache2 Version: 2.4.10-7 Severity: serious Dear Maintainer,
apache2 uses dpkg-maintscript-helper's symlink_to_dir with a relative path. Support for relative paths in symlink_to_dir was introduced in dpkg 1.17.14, however apache2 pre-depends on dpkg >= 1.17.5. Trying to install apache2 without upgrading dpkg first, will cause the following: Preparing to unpack .../apache2_2.4.10-7_amd64.deb ... dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: original symlink target is not an absolute path dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/apache2_2.4.10-7_amd64.deb (--unpack): subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: original symlink target is not an absolute path dpkg: error while cleaning up: subprocess new post-removal script returned error exit status 1 Processing triggers for man-db (2.6.7.1-1) ... Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/apache2_2.4.10-7_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) Proper solutions to this are either bumping dpkg pre-depends, or using an absolute path in symlink_to_dir.
