Package: pmk
Severity: serious
Version: 0.9.0-1

Hi.  On a fresh install of pmk (no previous version was installed), the
postinst fails at configure time (see below).

What appears to be happening is that the postinst is called as
"postinst configure" (no version argument), causing the command
"dpkg --compare-versions $2 le 0.8.1-1" to fail because $2 is empty.

I'm not sure if the postinst is broken or if dpkg is failing to pass an
argument that it should; my reading of policy 6.4 is unclear as to what
should happen if no previous version had been configured.

At any rate, this breaks the install and so it would seem to be RC.

Ben.

dpkg: --compare-versions takes three arguments: <version> <relation> <version>

Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages [*];

Type dpkg -Dhelp for a list of dpkg debug flag values;
Type dpkg --force-help for a list of forcing options;
Type dpkg-deb --help for help about manipulating *.deb files;
Type dpkg --licence for copyright licence and lack of warranty (GNU GPL) [*].

Options marked [*] produce a lot of output - pipe it through `less' or `more' !
