Package: ifplugd
Version: 0.28-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
On my system ifplugd doesn't install smoothly. I'll cut and paste below
the output of an installation. The problem seems to be the postinst
script which has some dpkg --compare-versions calls. I briefly looked
at the script, but didn't figure out what exactly is wrong.
I'm just concerned when any package reports has any errors upon an
installation. For now, ifplugd seems to have installed fine. Let me know,
though, if you think the error actually prevented something from configuring
correctly.
Regards,
Sukant Hajra
