Re: Bug#103967: pine-tracker: pine-tracker refers to non-existant source package

[Santiago Vila <sanvila@unex.es>]

reassign 103967 apt
retitle 103967 apt-get refers to non-existant source package
thanks

If you look at it, it's apt-get who gives the misleading message,
not pine-tracker. You probably have a pine package generated from the
old "pine4" source and this seems to confuse apt-get. This is a bug in
apt-get, not in pine-tracker, so I'm reassigning the bug.

Thanks.
