Subject: libpaper1: bad debconf dependency breaks older systems

Package: libpaper1
Version: 1.1.14-0.2
Severity: grave

libpaper1 1.1.14 claims a dependence upon debconf (>= 0.9.25), but
when I installed it, the package could not configure itself. There
were two problems:

libpaper1.config uses:
db_settitle libpaper/defaultpaper

and

libpaper1.postinst uses:
ucf --debconf-ok /etc/papersize.dpkg-inst /etc/papersize

AFAICT, SETTITLE support didn't appear until debconf 1.3.22,
--debconf-ok didn't appear until ucf 0.28

Given these broken dependencies, the package could not be configured
on my system. Sorry if I overrated the severity of the bug.

Thanks,
Dave

You're confusing debconf and debhelper here, don't you?

Given that I uploaded the NMU, I will fix this in another one unless the
maintainer disagrees. Your analysis about the required versions seems
correct.

Bugs cloned to lintian, so that I can perhaps save others from making
the same mistakes.
