Bug#1002803: openssh: typo in alternatives
Package: openssh
Version: 1:8.7p1-3
Severity: serious
Tag: patch
Hi,
I think there's a typo here (running openssh-client postinst with set -x):
--snip--
+ update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/rcp rcp /usr/bin/scp 20 --slave
/usr/share/man/man1/rcp.1.gz rcp.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/rcp.1.gz
--snap--
which makes installing openssh-client fail with:
--snip--
update-alternatives: <link> and <path> can't be the same
Use 'update-alternatives --help' for program usage information.
dpkg: error processing package openssh-client (--configure):
installed openssh-client package post-installation script subprocess
returned error exit status 2
--snap--
Patch is attached.
Regards,
Daniel
