ppp need to be repackaged (kbd also)



Hello,

  I managed to fix my local mirror to be related to slink only (I removed the
links to potato/*/binary-all, added their counterpart to slink then reran
dpkg-scanpackages).
I then installed some new packages with dselect but at least two packages were
not correctly installed & configured:

 - ppp: postinst fails with the following error:

   chown: .: can not omit both user and group

   In fact, I didn't install suidregister and the fallback code is incorrect:

-------excerpt of ppp postinst---------
# Permission processing inserted by debmake on Wed,  7 Oct 1998 14:48:58 +0200
if [ -x /usr/sbin/suidregister ]; then
        suidregister -s ppp /usr/sbin/pppd   
else
        chown . /usr/sbin/pppd
        chmod  /usr/sbin/pppd
fi

   Don't know if it's related only to sparc dist...
   Could it be repackaged right ?

 - kbd depends on kbd-data 0.96a-10 but 0.96a-11 is in the archive.

Regards.
