Package: zsh-beta Version: 4.3.0-dev-1+20050823-1 Severity: important
After the last update zsh did not start up and as a consequence I was even unable to log in as root (as I use zsh for root as well) when trying to fix the problem. After the update, I realized that /etc/alternatives/zsh and /etc/alternatives/zsh-userbin were pointing to /usr/bin/zsh-beta instead of /bin/zsh-beta. I don't know if the update left them in this state: more probably I have set them there manually years ago. You might argue that this was a "bad thing" to do. However, even in this case I suggest that upon the update the script should check for this possibility and correct the symlinks. Otherwise this can put a previously well-working system into a rather annoying state. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (50, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-kt7 Locale: LANG=hu, LC_CTYPE=hu (charmap=ISO-8859-2) (ignored: LC_ALL set to hu_HU.ISO-8859-2) Versions of packages zsh-beta depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcap1 1:1.10-14 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libncurses5 5.4-9 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpcre3 5.0-1.1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii passwd 1:4.0.3-39 change and administer password and zsh-beta recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
