Package: dpkg-www Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I installed dpkg-www on a raspberry pi running raspian (based on Debian 10.1). For the web server I chose lighttpd and enabled the cgi module. When accessing the dpkg-www cgi via a web browser, anything clickable did not work. It would just print the main page. Looking a bit further and setting the debug option I noticed that the script did not receive the query string. Looking at /usr/lib/cgi-bin/dpkg it tries to load a perl module that is not in the dependancies. 1261: perl -e "use CGI; my \$q = new CGI(\$_); print scalar \$q->param('$key')" "$1" I installed libcgi-pm-perl to satisfy the dependancy and then the CGI worked as it should. The system information below is not the same system where I encountered the problem. I doubt that it makes much difference. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.11 APT prefers oldstable-updates APT policy: (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-rt-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages dpkg-www depends on: ii apt 1.4.9 pn dwww <none> pn info2www <none> ii perl 5.24.1-3+deb9u5 Versions of packages dpkg-www recommends: pn apache2 | httpd <none> Versions of packages dpkg-www suggests: ii chromium [www-browser] 73.0.3683.75-1~deb9u1 ii dctrl-tools [grep-dctrl] 2.24-2+b1 ii dlocate 1.07+nmu1 ii firefox-esr [www-browser] 60.9.0esr-1~deb9u1 pn man2html <none> ii tasksel 3.39
