Subject: texinfo: typo in postinst makes package uninstallable

Package: texinfo
Version: 4.8-3
Severity: serious

Package does not install properly:

Unpacking texinfo (from .../texinfo_4.8-3_kfreebsd-i386.deb) ...
Setting up texinfo (4.8-3) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/texinfo.postinst: line 56: update_ls_files: command not founddpkg: error processing texinfo (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
 texinfo

Apparently, postinst says "update_ls_files" instead of "update_lsr_files".

Thanks.

Thanks for spotting this, a version fixing this stupid error should be

CHIPPING ONGAR (n.)
The disgust and embarrassment (or 'ongar') felt by an observer in the
presence of a person festooned with kirbies (q.v.) when they don't
know them well enough to tell them to wipe them off, invariably this
'ongar' is accompanied by an involuntary staccato twitching of the leg
(or 'chipping')
