Package: procps
Version: 2:3.3.17-6
Severity: wishlist

Hi!
I was about to ask for trivial de-awkization of procps' preinst, but it
appears that this script was last modified more than 14 years ago, for a
migration of an old conffile on upgrades.  Upgrades from etch straight
to bookworm are obviously not supported.

Thus: could you please drop the preinst?

If for some reason you feel attached to it, then please instead replace
  curmd5=`md5sum "$f" |awk '{print $1}'`
with
  curmd5=`md5sum "$f" |cut -d' ' -f1`
but obviously dropping is superior.


Meow!
