reopen -1 retitle -1 dpkg-maintscript-helper: fails if no version is given Hi
The fix for #844701 included in the upload from earlier today breaks the installation of valgrind. Preparing to unpack .../valgrind_1%3a3.12.0-1_amd64.deb ... dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: dpkg: error: version '' has bad syntax: version string is empty dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/valgrind_1%3a3.12.0-1_amd64.deb (--unpack): subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: dpkg: error: version '' has bad syntax: version string is empty The problem is that valgrind includes the follwoing preinst: #!/bin/sh set -e # Automatically added by dh_installdeb dpkg-maintscript-helper rm_conffile /etc/bash_completion.d/valgrind -- "$@" # End automatically added section According to the dpkg-maintscript-helper manpage it's valid to omit the prior-version. So this is perfectly legal. Gaudenz -- PGP: 836E 4F81 EFBB ADA7 0852 79BF A97A 7702 BAF9 1EF5
