Ok, like I expected I have found NOT a single package that contains
a setuid or setgid binary.  Somebody please confirm this.

If nobody objects I'm going to close or at least downgrade this
bug report.

Here is the script I have used to investigate the files:

for pkg in clisp dpkg enscript gcal gettext grep id-utils info libc6 olwm pspp sharutils textutils xview xviewg
do
    dpkg -L $pkg |\
    while read file
    do
        if [ -d $file ]
        then
            continue
        else
            echo $file
        fi
    done | xargs ls -l |grep '^-..s'

Since some packages only add +s in their postinst scripts I have
installed the packages first.

Regards,

	Joey
