Gladly, but I'm not quite sure how and what to provide as debugging output. For starters I've run lintian (2.2.18 this time) with the "-d" switch: $ lintian --check --allow-root --show-overrides -i -b -d ghostscript_8.64-5_i386.deb N: Lintian v2.2.18ubuntu1 N: Lintian root directory: /usr/share/lintian N: Configuration file: /etc/lintianrc N: Laboratory: N: Archive directory: N: Distribution: N: Default unpack level: 1 N: Architecture: any N: ---- N: Setting up lab in /tmp/VIcPpbdtdw ... Return code is still 141. The content of the lab directory is: $ ll /tmp/VIcPpbdtdw/* /tmp/VIcPpbdtdw/binary: total 0 /tmp/VIcPpbdtdw/info: total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 25 10:50 binary-packages -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 25 10:50 source-packages -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 25 10:50 udeb-packages /tmp/VIcPpbdtdw/source: total 0 /tmp/VIcPpbdtdw/udeb: total 0 I've also tried to run lintian with a non-root user and with fewer parameters: #lintian --check -b -d ghostscript_8.64-5_i386.deb but with the same result. > > > Btw: I know I'm using Ubuntu (9.10) but I don't think this is a Ubuntu > > specific error.
