[Bug 934112] [NEW] dpkg aborts

[Michal Suchanek]

Public bug reported:

Oneiric dpkg aborts.

Since Precise dpkg does not I guess the simplest fix is to just import
the new version

Setting up libx11-doc (2:1.4.99.1-0ubuntu1) ...
dpkg: ../../src/packages.c:229: process_queue: Assertion `dependtry <= 4' failed.
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg exited unexpectedly
A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:
