Bug#569195: ocaml-base-nox: bogus md5sum entry generates debsums missmatch
Package: ocaml-base-nox
Version: 3.10.2-3
Severity: normal
debsums reports a missmatch in the ocaml-base-nox package:
arwen:/$ debsums -s ocaml-base-nox
debsums: checksum mismatch ocaml-base-nox file /usr/share/doc/ocaml-base-nox/ocaml_packaging_policy.txt.gz
It's because the md5sums file has an entry for a file installed by a different package (dh-ocaml) which has changed:
arwen:/$ grep usr/share/doc/ocaml-base-nox/ocaml_packaging_policy.txt.gz /var/lib/dpkg/info/*ocaml*.{md5sums,list}
/var/lib/dpkg/info/ocaml-base-nox.md5sums:06023c63ed06508ff1305259f30bcf37 usr/share/doc/ocaml-base-nox/ocaml_packaging_policy.txt.gz
/var/lib/dpkg/info/dh-ocaml.list:/usr/share/doc/ocaml-base-nox/ocaml_packaging_policy.txt.gz
Please eliminate the bogus entry in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ocaml-base-nox.md5sums
