dpkg problems after upgrading libc0.2 + friends
Since i upgrade hurd, libc0.2, libnss-db, libdb2 and libdb2-utils dpkg
has stopped working.
Im not certain it is related to the upgrade, but am also having problems
with the network, ping causes a bus error, ftp and apt also dont work,
but i figuregetting dpkg to work is a good start.
I get the following error
dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 2
`packaging-manual' value for `status' field not allowed in this context.
I removed a few package entries from the available file and get this
error irrespective of which package entry is first. Prior to this error
i havent touch the file myself.
I tried manually putting the new dpkg into place, version 1.7.1.1 i
think it is, but get the same error.
ideas ?
