Bug#323863: 2.70 error in postinstall script



Just a reply to previously filed bug #323863

Setting up base-config (2.70) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/base-config.postinst: line 59: syntax error near
unexpected token `db_fset'
dpkg: error processing base-config (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 base-config
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


There is an extra "\" on the previous line in the for loop.  The next line
is a naked "do" token, which needs either a prepended ";" or removing the
last "\" from line 58.

                apt-setup/security-updates-failed \

so be edited to look like:

                apt-setup/security-updates-failed

rerun apt-get and the script should apply correctly.
