Bug#77413: 9menu Unable to execute prerm or postinst



Package: 9menu
Version: 1.4-10

A friend and I were also having the prerm/postinst
problem with 9menu and came to the same conclusion as
the original submitter, that the problem was the
missing "#!/bin/sh -e" line.  He rebuilt the package
with this line added in the prerm and postinst scripts
and the problem disappeared.

We don't know the proper way to submit a bugfix, not
being regular developers, so he's posted the repaired
version on his webpage as
http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~rafi/9menu_1.4-10_i386.deb
(Also, put it up with an incremented subversion,
http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~rafi/9menu_1.4-11_i386.deb
but don't really know how these things work, so
whatever.)

Sorry for not doing this the "proper" way...
