Bug#466268: apt: Could not exec dpkg (Hurd)

["Hongzheng Wang" <wanghz@gmail.com>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.7.10
Severity: normal

Hi,

Recently, I began to use Debian Hurd.  The whole system works well.
But after upgrading to the up-to-date state, there appears to be a
mismatch between apt and dpkg.  That is, the apt could not exec dpkg.
Each time when I use apt system to install/upgrade/remove packages,
apt always reports:
...
Preconfiguring packages ...
Could not exec dpkg!
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (100)

But if I mannually execute dpkg to handle the cached packages under
/var/cache/apt/archives/, dpkg works properly.

Thanks.
