I will accept that as a workaround. dpkg-fsys-usrunmess is indeed
installed
If there is a war between dpkg and apt, do we need to invoke the
Technical Committee to either force removal or dpkg-fsys-usrunmess or
force uploading fixes like the one to this bug ? It sounds like it is
needed.
I see now it has been resolved. dpkg-fsys-usrunmess is no longer
available, it is now marked as a "local or obselete" package.
Perhaps the most practical resolution is to mark
apt Conflicts: dpkg-fsys-usrunmess ?
