Package: dpkg Version: 1.9.18 Severity: normal It seems that dpkg --compare-versions returns always true. This breaks for example the modutils.preinst script (version 2.4.13-3 in my case) which checks against the kernel-version with the following command: dpkg --compare-versions "`uname -r`" lt 2.2.0
Another example of this errornous behaviour: # dpkg --compare-versions 2.2.14 lt 2.2.0; echo $? 0 # dpkg --compare-versions 2.2.14 gt 2.2.0; echo $? 0 System Information: # uname -srm Linux 2.4.14 i686 # dpkg -s libc6 | grep ^Version Version: 2.2.5-3 Feel free to email me if there are any further questions. -- Best regards, Stefan Brink mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
