Bug#314571: xserver-xfree86: lack of awk causes preconfig to fail
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14
Severity: normal
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
When installing several new systems today, I noted that if mawk (part of
the base installation) is slated for removal and both xserver-xfree86
and gawk are slated for installation at the same time, mawk is removed
first, and (since the order of installation is not deterministic) if
xserver-xfree86 is upacked and preconfigured before gawk, it fails.
xserver-xfree86 (and any other packages that rely on awk) should
Pre-Depend on awk.
