** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: irda-utils
  
  Hp dv6000 (dv6131od)
  Ubuntu 9.04 jaunty added myth+studio packages
  
  ProblemType: Package
  Architecture: i386
  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04
  ErrorMessage: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 
127
  Package: irda-utils 0.9.18-8.1ubuntu1
  SourcePackage: irda-utils
  Title: package irda-utils 0.9.18-8.1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: 
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127
  Uname: Linux 2.6.28-8-generic i686
+ 
+ SRU justification:  package is completely uninstallable in jaunty,
+ because it calls a non-existing utility in the postinst.
+ 
+ Addressed in karmic, as indicated in the bug log below.
+ 
+ TEST CASE: try to install the irda-utils package in jaunty.  It will
+ fail.  Then enable jaunty-proposed and try again.
+ 
+ REGRESSION POTENTIAL:  because the package is uninstallable in jaunty,
+ and was so for much of the release cycle, it is possible that successful
+ installation of the package will introduce other regressions in untested
+ code paths.  However, the theoretical possibility of such a regression
+ does not outweigh the need for an installable package.
