Package: mplayer Version: 1.0~rc2-6 Severity: minor I recently updated mplayer and saw
Setting up mplayer (1.0~rc2-6) ... -e Configuring mplayer ...-e Mplayer warning: dvd device '/dev/cdrom' does not exist! -e done mplayer.postinst (which claims to be a posix shell script) printed (some of) these messages (including the -e stuff). The script does so by using echo -n -e in a message shell function. However posix does neither guarantee to provide -n nor -e. Using echo -n -e is (even if it was intended to print "-n -e") at least confusing, because the behaviour is shell dependant. I therefore suggest discarding "-n -e" or using printf.
