Package: nsd Version: 2.3.3-1 Severity: important Justification: violates release requirements, but works well in reality
While testing nsd with piuparts, I found the following error: Setting up nsd (2.3.3-1) ... /var/lib/dpkg/info/nsd.postinst: line 9: /usr/sbin/addgroup: No such file or directory dpkg: error processing nsd (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: nsd E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) The package needs to depend on adduser, since it uses addgroup (part of adduser) and adduser isn't essential. This violates a release requirement (see http://release.debian.org/etch_rc_policy.txt), which normally would mean the bug is "grave", but since adduser *is* installed on pretty much every Debian system, the missing dependency is unlikely to cause real trouble in more than the most esoteric cases, and therefore I don't think it warrants more than an "important" severity. -- Never underestimate the power of a small tactical Lisp interpreter. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
