Package: apt-utils Version: 0.9.7.6 Severity: normal Running (via live-build)
apt-ftparchive ... -o APT::FTPArchive::Release::Version="" -o APT::FTPArchive::Release::Codename="testing" ... release dists/testing results in the error E: Invalid operation APT::FTPArchive::Release::Codename=testing It looks like apt-ftparchive is ignoring the = symbol and proceeding to take -o as the Version value and APT::FTPArchive::Release::Codename=testing as the operation. This usage is of course dubious, and I will report a bug on live-build for issuing it; all the same, apt-ftparchive should either accept the empty Version value or yield a clearer error message. Could you please take a look?
