Package: librep-doc Version: 0.17+svn20070119-5 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable (uninstallable) librep-doc's post-installation script fails with the following messages: > Setting up librep-doc (0.17+svn20070119-5) ... > install-info(/usr/share/info/librep.info): warning, ignoring confusing INFO-DIR-ENTRY in file. > > No `START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY' and no `This file documents'. > install-info(/usr/share/info/librep.info): unable to determine description for `dir' entry - giving up > dpkg: error processing librep-doc (--configure): > subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 AFAICT, this is because the line This is librep.info, produced by makeinfo version 4.11 from librep.texi. somehow wound up within the INFO-DIR-ENTRY block rather than above it as in other files. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22.10 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- no debconf information
