Bug#704723: apt: Upgrade to apt_0.9.7.9~exp2 fails because of attempted overwrite of manpages
Package: apt
Version: 0.9.7.8
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I think there is something wrong with the files included in the apt
package from experimental. Since packages from experimental sooner or
later land into unstable, it's good to fix this before the next
release. ^_^
I gather that localized manpages should not distributed with the apt
package.
