Bug#367457: tex-common.config: arith: syntax error: "usercount++"
Package: tex-common
Version: 0.22
Severity: serious
Installing tex-common 0.22, I get
Setting up tex-common (0.22) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/tex-common.config: 163: arith: syntax error: "usercount++"
dpkg: error processing tex-common (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
I guess it's referring to : $((usercount++)). Is this a bashism? My sh is
dash.
