Please unblock package man-db. I notice that openssh 1:6.7p1-3 was already unblocked, and man-db is for the same reason: it drops obsolete assumptions about dpkg-statoverride's path. Even if the /usr/sbin/dpkg-statoverride symlink is restored, I'd rather not have this potentially cause problems during upgrades from jessie to jessie+1. diff -Nru man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/changelog man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/changelog --- man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/changelog 2014-10-10 14:09:07.000000000 +0100 +++ man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/changelog 2014-11-03 20:26:42.000000000 +0000 @@ -1,3 +1,11 @@ +man-db (2.7.0.2-3) unstable; urgency=medium + + * Policy version 3.9.6: no changes required. + * Assume that dpkg-statoverride exists and drop the test for an obsolete + compatibility path. + + -- Colin Watson <[email protected]> Mon, 03 Nov 2014 20:26:39 +0000 + man-db (2.7.0.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium * Remove /var/lib/man-db/auto-update on purge. diff -Nru man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/control man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/control --- man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/control 2014-09-28 00:24:26.000000000 +0100 +++ man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/control 2014-10-15 01:43:25.000000000 +0100 @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ Section: doc Priority: important Maintainer: Colin Watson <[email protected]> -Standards-Version: 3.9.5 +Standards-Version: 3.9.6 Build-Depends: dpkg (>= 1.16.1~), debhelper (>= 9~), flex, groff, libgdbm-dev, po4a, zlib1g-dev, libpipeline-dev (>= 1.3.0), pkg-config, dh-autoreconf, autopoint Homepage: http://man-db.nongnu.org/ Vcs-Git: git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-man-db/man-db.git diff -Nru man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/postinst man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/postinst --- man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/postinst 2014-09-28 00:24:26.000000000 +0100 +++ man-db-2.7.0.2/debian/postinst 2014-11-03 20:25:22.000000000 +0000 @@ -52,8 +52,7 @@ for x in $maybesetuid; do # No statoverrides available or none exist for us ... - if [ ! -x /usr/sbin/dpkg-statoverride ] || \ - ! dpkg-statoverride --list /usr/bin/$x >/dev/null; then + if ! dpkg-statoverride --list /usr/bin/$x >/dev/null; then chown $owner /usr/bin/$x || true chmod $mode /usr/bin/$x fi unblock man-db/2.7.0.2-3 Thanks, -- Colin Watson [[email protected]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
