Package: cfengine
Version: 1.6.4-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
I don't know exactly which package is the culprit here, since
there are four of them to choose from, cfengine, cfengine-doc,
cfengine2, and cfengine2-doc, so I will just file this one bug
report and let the developer sor it out. Okay?
I installed woody from scratch, which included installing the
cfengine package. Then I changed my sources.list to point to
sarge (exclusively), and simultaneously purged cfengine and
installed cfengine2, using apt. I didn't like cfengine2, so I
then simultaneously purged cfengine2 and installed cfengine.
In the above description, when I say cfengine or cfengine2 I mean
actually 2 packages each - cfengine + cfengine-doc and cfengine2 +
cfengine2-doc.
Now my info dir looks like this,
$ grep -i cfengine /usr/share/info/dir
* cfengine Reference: (cfengine-Reference.info). Cfengine is a language based
* cfengine Tutorial: (cfengine-Tutorial.info). Cfengine is a language based
* Cfengine-Reference: (cfengine-Reference). GNU Cfengine Reference.
* cfengine Reference: (cfengine2-Reference.info). Cfengine is a language based
* Cfengine-Tutorial: (cfengine-Tutorial). GNU Cfengine Tutorial.
* cfengine Tutorial: (cfengine2-Tutorial.info). Cfengine is a language based
$ locate info/dir
/usr/share/info/dir
/usr/share/info/dir.old
dpkg -l cfengine\*

ii cfengine 1.6.4-1 Tool for configuring and maintaining network
ii cfengine-doc 1.6.4-1 HTML and INFO documentation for cfengine
pn cfengine2 <none> (no description available)
pn cfengine2-doc <none> (no description available)
So, here is the mess, as I see it,
1. There are two entries for cfengine2 which shouldn't be
there at all, since it has been purged.
2. There are duplicate, therefore confusingly similar entries,
for each of cfengine reference and cfengine tutorial.
There should be only one entry for the reference and one
entry for the tutorial.
Thanks,

hi,
the cfengine package was removed from unstable so
you shouldn't experience these problems anymore.
Cheers
