Package: apt-file
Version: 2.5.0
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
rapt-file depends on dpkg-architecture from dpkg-dev package (which
the depends on perl, gcc). dpkg-dev is now correctly listed as
Recommends in 2.5.0 (sid, wheezy), which wasn't the case in 2.4.0
(squeeze).
Assuming there isn't any other need to use dpkg-dev apart from this
one call, these huge dependencies can be removed by calling dpkg
instead of dpkg-architecture in the get_architecture() function:
replace
return subprocess.Popen(["dpkg-architecture",
"-qDEB_HOST_ARCH"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()[0].strip()
with
return subprocess.Popen(["dpkg", "--print-architecture"],
stdout=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()[0].strip()
