would you mind to take a look athttps://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=888743 The fix is pretty easy. Whats really bugging me is that nobody dares to touch the complex code of lsb-base. IMHO this is a clear indication that Debian lost the blessed path other Unixes do follow. What is your suggestion here? Apply the patch I provided (or maybe a better one), or get rid of lsb-base completely?
My suggestion is unless you are prepared to adopt and maintain lsb-base, (as Didier has made clear he wants to orphan it), find an alternative tool to achieve what you want. -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Jonathan Dowland ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://jmtd.net ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ Please do not CC me, I am subscribed to the list.
