Package: dpkg
Version: 1.9.18
Severity: normal
When installing a new 'debconf' from incoming, I inadverntly downloaded a
partial .deb file. [1] I attempted to install this file and:
teela:~# dpkg -i debconf_1.0.20_all.deb
Selecting previously deselected package debconf.
(Reading database ... 132153 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking debconf (from debconf_1.0.20_all.deb) ...
Setting up debconf (1.0.20) ...
Can't locate Debconf/Db.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl/5.6.1
/usr/local/share/perl/5.6.1 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.6.1

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/debconf/frontend line 22.
dpkg: error processing debconf (--install):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
debconf
was the output.
Then I went a step further and used "ar x debconf_1.0.20_all.deb" on the file:
teela:~# ar x debconf_1.0.20_all.deb
ar: debconf_1.0.20_all.deb is not a valid archive
ar still unpacked as much as it could.
In this case, is dpkg able to learn if the package is 'not a valid archive'
and abort processing that package?
I think apt does check md5sums before passing to dpkg, so this shouldn't be
a widespread problem at all. If you feel that this is beyond the scope of
dpkg, feel free to set it to wishlist.

Changes:
dpkg (1.13.11) unstable; urgency=low
.
The "Good, clean fun" Release.
.
* Fixed the always broken error handling so that only the intended
cleanup handlers are run, rather than ones that we didn't expect.
This corrects the bug when a package's postrm fails and the package is
left in an installed state with no files; the package will now be left
in a half-installed state, as originally intended. Found by Marga
Manterola while documenting the maintainer scripts. Closes: #296026.
* Fixed removal of files involved in diversions during upgrade, caused by
checking whether the "directory" was in use by another package without
actually checking whether or not it was a directory. Closes: #310390.
* Fixed package saving to not disappear packages who divert anything from
the installing package out of the way. Closes: #113626.
* Improved clean-up of unpack failure during install or upgrade, to leave
the system in exactly the same state as it started in.
Closes: #47404, #82407, #121173, #170869, #201848, #236733, #268639.
* Fixed crash when unpacking a package which has an unversioned Replaces
declared on it by another package previously unpacked in the same run
(Colin Watson). Closes: #322595.
.
* New install unwinding fixed to ensure we don't leave a version in the
status db for a not-installed package.
* Corrected error call when encountering a corrupted filesystem tarfile
to not print "Success". Closes: #95570.
* Fixed castration of potentially unsafe devices to not follow symlinks.
Closes: #169928.
* Marked log file descriptor as close-on-exec. Closes: #320925.
* Re-worked dpkg-source -x to allow all manner of strange things maintainers
seem to do, unpacking isn't the right place to enforce sanity; we'll
do it in -b later on >:-). Closes: #316470, #317760, #318473, #318745,
#322359, #322361, #322362.
.
* Corrected dselect synopsis line to match consensus. Closes: #318659.
* Changed dpkg-name to use a shell redirect rather than the /dev/stderr
device that may not be writable. Closes: #318376.
* Adjusted various dpkg-query options to avoid outputting a trailing
newline. Closes: #151651, #319781.
* Changed references to "statusoverride" file to just "statoverride"
to make it match reality. Closes: #320952.
* Fixed several bugs with the default diff ignore list used by dpkg-source.
* Added ,,* to the list of default diff ignore list. Closes: #322917.
.
* Fixes to dpkg-dev (Frank Lichtenheld):
- dpkg-checkbuilddeps will now exit with an error if it is unable to
parse a dependency field. Closes: #171762, #302229.
- dpkg-genchanges will now output a warning if given -sd for a native
package, as it's going to ignore it. Closes: #5571.
- dpkg-source fixed to give a more meaningful error message if given
a directory as the first argument. Closes: #306874.
- dpkg-source fixed to handle being given an absolute path to -b.
Closes: #147574.
- Fix controllib.pl to allow whitespace before version operators.
Closes: #273489, #310306.
- Fix architecture dependency parsing that sometimes generated wrong
list of requirements. Closes: #319816.
- Make the default control field name mangling behaviour "nicer" by
upper-casing all letters that come after a dash. Closes: #306474.
- Ignore trailing newlines in single paragraph control files.
Closes: #57194, #156319
* Documentation:
- Fixed typo in dpkg-architecture man page. Closes: #317770.
- Documented dpkg-deb -W/--show and --showformat. Closes: #319784.
