Package: mlton
Version: 20050826-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


  Hello,

  This version of the mlton package fails to configure. After being
unpacked, the configure phase fails with the message:

Setting up mlton (20050826-1) ...
/usr/share/doc-base/mlton: cannot open control file for reading: No such file 
or directory
dpkg: error processing mlton (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2

This happens because the postinst script has the snippet:

        for f in mllex mlton mlyacc; do
                install-docs -i /usr/share/doc-base/$f
        done

while the file /usr/share/doc-base/mlton does not exist. The solution
here would be, either to create one, or remove its reference from the
postinst script.

Thanks,
Vasilis
