Bug#465873: Debian Live: live-helper in Debian lenny: lh_build chokes on the "@" charachter



Package: live-helper
Version: 1.0~a37-2
Severity: normal
Architecture: i386

The current version of live-helper in Debian lenny has a major problem when
it encounters the "@" charachter.

Basically lh_build just stops because sed chokes on the "@" charachter,
look:

Detailed information:
Versions of packages live-helper depends on:
ii  debootstrap       1.0.8       Bootstrap a basic Debian system

Kernel: 2.6.22-3-686 #1 SMP Sun Feb 10 20:20:49 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

A solution is to install a version of live-helper from
http://live.debian.net/debian-snapshots/ such as
live-helper_1.0~a38~20080118.095204_all.deb or
live-helper_1.0~a38~20080213.102042_all.deb

It would be nice if this bug could be fixed in the Debian lenny package :)

Cheers,
