Hi! Per the discussion upstream (https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?38474):
* it had been already announced, in 2005 * it goes contrary to the wording in POSIX * the upstream change for this report was to give an error message rather than to reinstate the behaviour Since then, dh_shlibdeps has been fixed in 9.20130504, yet there's still a handful of minor problems elsewhere. It's easy to find literal uses thanks to http://codesearch.debian.net, but it's possible the mode comes from a variable. I guess it'd be good to file bugs in affected packages, should I do this? As for fileutils, could you tell me what are your plans wrt 4.5.* upstream versions? Are you going to upload them to unstable anytime soon? If not, it might be good to patch 4.4.2 to throw a fatal error: that's easy to spot, as opposed to silent breakage. -- ᛊᚨᚾᛁᛏᚣ᛫ᛁᛊ᛫ᚠᛟᚱ᛫ᚦᛖ᛫ᚹᛖᚨᚲ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
