Package: dphys-config
Version: 20130301~current-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
dphys-config fails on files with the "#@dphys-config-preprocess
backtick" preprocessor directive if the output of the command inside the
backtick contains again backticks. (This is independent of the number of
times the backtick preprocessor is called with
"#@dphys-config-preprocess".
The following patch fixes this issue:

The other two preprocessor directives are not affected. They cannot
appear more than once per line and hence didn't have issues to
distinguish between yet to be parsed parts of the line and output from
already parsed parts of the line.
I've already forwarded the issue and patch to upstream. This bug report
is primarily to document the issue publically.
