Bug#1054449: pesign: Missing Pre-Depends on passwd
Package: pesign
Version: 0.112-6
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Dear maintainer:
When installing this package on a minimal chroot, this is what happens:
Preparing to unpack .../26-pesign_0.112-6_amd64.deb ...
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: 19: groupadd: not found
dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-4UpEBk/26-pesign_0.112-6_amd64.deb (--unpack):
new pesign package pre-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127
This is because the package should have a Pre-Depends on "passwd",
which is not essential.
Trivial patch attached.
Thanks.
