[Bug 806864] Re: remove from repository

[Marcin Juszkiewicz]

11:04 < hrw> fun is that I have this message on oneiric
11:05 < hrw> once it will finish upgrade I will sent apport-collect
11:05 < infinity> hrw: Which means you have/had the package installed at one point, and now dpkg has gotten grumpy about the stanza...
11:06 < infinity> hrw: Perhaps worth filing a bug against dpkg for suddenly being irked by version numbers that it used to let slide.
11:06 < hrw> un  x-loader-omap4                     <none>                             (no description available)

11:06 < infinity> hrw: Yes, note the "had"... The stanza is in there because you used to have it installed, I assume.
