Using Debian unstable and did an update last night, hit a snag.
dpkg: parse error, in file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 2483
package 'gstreamer0.10-nice':
`Depends' field, reference to `libc6': version contains ` '
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
Line 2483 of /var/lib/dpkg/status contains this:
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.59, libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.14.0),
libgstreamer0.10-0 (>= 0.10.15), libnice0 (>= 0.0.1), libxml2 (>=
2.6.27)
So I changed line 2483 to this:
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.59), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.14.0),
libgstreamer0.10-0 (>= 0.10.15), libnice0 (>= 0.0.1), libxml2 (>=
2.6.27)
and it worked. Was this borked on just my system or is this a bug that
needs filed somewhere? And if so, would I file it against
gstreamer0.10-nice or dpkg or something else?
I also ran into problems in /var/lib/dpkg/status with "Package:
procps" having typos of "Maintainerz" missing the colon and having a
"z". And typo "Reco>mends:". Where should those get reported?
thank you!
