Bug in dpkg; fixed in the version of dpkg in raring. SRU needed.

Looks like we need to cherry-pick this: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=dpkg/dpkg.git;a=commitdiff;h=05a8ddb

quantal has seen the end of its life and is no longer receiving any updates. Marking the quantal task for this ticket as "Won't Fix".

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

The Precise Pangolin has reached end of life, so this bug will not be fixed for that release
