Bug#239061: Segfault when setting up glibc-doc
Package: glibc-doc
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-11
Severity: normal
I've upgraded a stable system to unstable. glibc-doc gave a segfault
when setting up:
*********
intralin3:/etc/apt# apt-get install glibc-doc
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
glibc-doc is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 139 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.

After unpacking 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Setting up glibc-doc (2.3.2.ds1-11) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/glibc-doc.postinst: line 19: 7661 Segmentation fault
in
stall-info --quiet --section "GNU C library functions" "GNU C library
functions"
/usr/share/info/libc-dir-add.info
********
The problem: dpkg version. Stable version was 1.9.21.
I've upgraded 'manually' to latest dpkg (1.10.20), and glibc-doc could be
set up...
Perhaps a dependency has to be added...
