[Development Fix] This has been fixed in 2012.1~e4~20120126.11502-0ubuntu2 in quantal [Stable Fix] Minimal patch available below: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/melange/+bug/995187/+attachment/3147526/+files/fix-for-995187.diff [Test Case] Try to install from precise, and receive the below error message. Install new version from precise-proposed, and it works as expected. [Regression Potential] Very little considering that the package is uninstallable as is. ###### Following is the result of running apt-get install melange on an Ubuntu Precise machine: Unpacking melange (from .../melange_2012.1~e4~20120126.11502-0ubuntu1_all.deb) ...
