Hi,
I'm using 1.18.5 but near as I can tell the feature I am having
trouble with hasn't been changed.
dpkg -i something.deb is giving me strange results - for most of my
packages, it's creating a zero-length xxxx.list file.
I narrowed it down to the section of code that generates the file:
while (archive_handle->dpkg__sub_archive->passed) {
/* the leading . has been stripped by
data_extract_all_prefix already */
fputs(archive_handle->dpkg__sub_archive->passed->data,
out_stream);
fputc('\n', out_stream);
archive_handle->dpkg__sub_archive->passed =
archive_handle->dpkg__sub_archive->passed->link;
}
fclose(out_stream);
The while loop executes zero times. My deb does in fact have files in
it, and they get placed properly. I can't figure out exactly how
'passed' gets populated - something having to do with the filter.
What my deb doesn't have is a conffiles or md5sums.
Something has changed, because this used to work. Is md5sums now required?
