Thanks, I guess I won't need backports , when I have time I will update dpkg to 1.18.2 (current debian-testing package ) to fedora devel. This is current map of dpkg in Fedora [1], I follow [2]. How is update dpkg 1.17 to 1.18 ? is easy ? any bigger issue that you can remember ? [1] https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/dpkg [2] https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/dpkg Thanks, -- Sérgio M. B.
