ZINF pkgs crashing dpkg - please test
Hi! I finished a first version of my ZINF packages (ZINF is not FreeA*p). They seem to reproducibly cause a dpkg degfault on my machine when doing the following: ~# apt-get install freeamp freeamp-extras libfreeamp-esound ~# dpkg -i --auto-deconfigure zinf_2.2.0-1_i386.deb zinf-extras_2.2.0-1_i386.deb zinf-plugin-esound_2.2.0-1_i386.deb On my machine this dpkg crashes like this: Selecting previously deselected package zinf. dpkg: considering removing freeamp in favour of zinf ... dpkg: yes, will remove freeamp in favour of zinf. (Reading database ... 101551 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking zinf (from zinf_2.2.0-1_i386.deb) ... De-configuring freeamp-extras, so that we can remove freeamp ... De-configuring libfreeamp-esound, so that we can remove freeamp ... Segmentation fault Could (esp. FreeAmp users) please try to install my packages (available from http://student.cosy.sbg.ac.at/~arott/dpkg-crash/) like this? If dpkg crashes, you can recover like this: ~# dpkg --configure -a ~# apt-get -f install If i get no crash reports 'till Monday, I will upload my ZINF packages, assuming this is a local problem.

You most certainly want to test this in a chroot environment. May I suggest using debootstrap or pbuilder to do this. Please do not upload your packages until you are sure that they work properly. Thanks for doing proper QA! Simon

Good idea, thx I already built a version using pbuilder and checked that on my machine, but still the same crash happens.
