install-info fails for many packages
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
on my workstation (unstable) I'm having troubles with many packages it
started with tar (I reported bug report to it ... but problem is propably
somewhere else) and today last was recode.
It output messages similar to this:
| Setting up recode (3.6-7) ...
| install-info: unrecognized option `--description=Character set
| conversion utility.'
| Try `install-info --help' for a complete list of options.
| dpkg: error processing recode (--configure):
| subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
| Errors were encountered while processing:
| recode
It helps to comment out install-info call from package's prerm/postinst
scripts - but this was is really dirty hack ...
Is anyone experiencing this trouble?
PS: I'm CCing bugreport I filled against tar, please, consider if your
reply is valuable to tar's mantainer. If no, don't CC it ...
Best regards
