Subject: errors in /usr/bin/install-ppd
Date: Tue, 4 Mar 1997 22:02:55 +0100
Package: ppd-gs
Version: 1.1-1

* The installation script (update-ppd) reports the following errors:

>The adaptation of your PPD files yielded the following messages:

>expr: syntax error
>/usr/bin/install-ppd: [: 2010: unary operator expected
>/usr/bin/install-ppd: [: 2010: unary operator expected
[...]
>/usr/bin/install-ppd: [: 2010: unary operator expected

>Hope these messages are clear enough...

I don't really think so.

* In addition, this script has near to nothing as documentation, and
virtually no comment !

/bin/sh is bash 2.0.0; same occured with 1.14.7
gs is aladin 4.03

Sorry, but I don't really think I can tell you more to help :-(

Feel free to ask for more info...
