Hello,
I just installed LibreOffice version 6.4.0~rc1-2 on my Debian unstable
machine, and saw this:
Processing 8 changed doc-base files, 1 added doc-base file...
Error in `/usr/share/doc-base/access2base', line 7: all `Format'
sections are invalid.
Note: `install-docs --verbose --check file_name' may give more details
about the above error.
I did a bit of investigating:
# dpkg-query -S /usr/share/doc-base/access2base
libreoffice-common: /usr/share/doc-base/access2base
# install-docs --verbose --check /usr/share/doc-base/access2base
Warning in `/usr/share/doc-base/access2base', line 7: `Files' value not
specified for format `html'.
Error in `/usr/share/doc-base/access2base', line 7: all `Format'
sections are invalid.
/usr/share/doc-base/access2base: Fatal error found, the file won't be
registered.
# cat /usr/share/doc-base/access2base
Document: access2base
Title: Access2Base
Author: Jean-Pierre Ledure
Section: Office
Format: HTML
Index: /usr/share/doc/libreoffice-common/access2base.html
For comparison, I looked at another file in /usr/share/doc-base:
# cat /usr/share/doc-base/aptitude-doc-en
Document: aptitude-doc-en
Title: Aptitude User's Manual (English)
Author: Daniel Burrows
Abstract: This manual describes the usage of the aptitude package manager.
Section: System/Package Management
Format: HTML
Index: /usr/share/doc/aptitude/html/en/index.html
Files: /usr/share/doc/aptitude/html/en/*.html
I know nothing about these files. I'm guessing that when "Format" is
"HTML" it is supposed to be accompanied by a valid "Files" entry.
Am I wrong?
Would you like me to file a bug on the BTS? (Looked trivial to me, so I
thought I'd check by email first.)
Thanks,
Dave W.
