Package: libcommandline-ruby1.8 Version: 0.7.10-1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 9.10 (doc-base section 2.3)
The two files libcommandline-ruby1.8 installs in /usr/share/doc-base lack Files fields, breaking installation on at least some systems (those with doc-base installed?): } Setting up libcommandline-ruby1.8 (0.7.10-1) ... } error in control file: `Files' value not specified at /usr/sbin/install-docs line 638, <IN> line 9. } dpkg: error processing libcommandline-ruby1.8 (--configure): } subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 255 } dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libcommandline-ruby: } libcommandline-ruby depends on libcommandline-ruby1.8; however: } Package libcommandline-ruby1.8 is not configured yet. } dpkg: error processing libcommandline-ruby (--configure): } dependency problems - leaving unconfigured } Errors were encountered while processing: } libcommandline-ruby1.8 } libcommandline-ruby It is mandatory to specify Files even if the only relevant file is the one already specified as the Index; could you please do so?

Incidentally, it would probably also be wise to give the doc-base files versioned names (say, by appending -1.8) so that you won't run into trouble if you add support for other Ruby versions down the road. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14.2 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages libcommandline-ruby1.8 depends on: ii ruby1.8 1.8.3-3 Interpreter of object-oriented scr libcommandline-ruby1.8 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
