Right, I think this bug needs to be assigned to base-files. Santiago, please see <http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/07/msg01028.html> for an explanation of why I've reassigned this bug; I think awk has been accidentally left outside the Essential set in a subtle way that has gone largely unnoticed, probably because no one uses awk in their preinst scripts. :) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
