Bug#365400: sed used but no in dependency list
Package: libc6
State: partially configured
Automatically installed: no
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22sarge3
Priority: required
Section: base
Maintainer: GNU Libc Maintainers <debian-glibc@lists.debian.org>
Uncompressed Size: 15.7M
Depends: libdb1-compat
Suggests: locales, glibc-doc
Install libc6 fails because(?) no sed was installed but sed
seems to be used in libc6.postinst.
sed can't be installed anymore because libc6 is partly installed
and can't be removed without removing the entire base system...
Pardon, that's not a libc6 specifc problem.
sed IS installed
sed IS in /bin/
/bin is in PATH...
but:
Tha might be a problem of sym links?
:/# ls /bin | grep sed
sed
See the "sed" ?
