Bug#205543: xserver-common: postinst uses head -1 not head -n 1



Package: xserver-common
Version: 4.2.1-0woody1
Severity: normal

http://lists.debian.org/debian-glibc/2003/debian-glibc-200308/msg00127.html

* The following obsolete usages are no longer supported when conforming
 to POSIX 1003.1-2001, which prohibits most digit-string options:
   expand -N   (instead, use expand -t N)
   head -N     (instead, use head -c N or head -n N)
   fold -N     (instead, use fold -w N)
   split -N    (instead, use split -l N)
   tail -N     (instead, use tail -c N or tail -n N)
   unexpand -N (instead, use unexpand --first-only -t N)
   uniq -N     (instead, use uniq -f N)
