Title:
Missing dpkg-dev dependency results in false bad quality warnings when
installing local packages
Status in “aptdaemon” package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in “aptdaemon” source package in Quantal:
In Progress
Bug description:
There is a missing dependency on the dpkg-dev package by aptdaemon.
The dpkg-vendor command of the dpkg-dev package is used to detect if
the system is a Debian or Ubuntu derivate. The result is used to
select the correct lintian profile which is used to check the quality
of local packages before installing them.
If dpkg-dev isn't installed (by default it isn't installed) the test
package quality fails and every package is reported as beeing of bad
quality.
Unfortunately dpkg-dev is installed on nearly every developer system
and the build system which is used for the unit tests.
Test case:
1. Boot a fresh installed system
2. Download a package file, e.g.
http://www.teamviewer.com/download/teamviewer_linux_x64.deb
3. Install the package file in software-center
Original Message:
I tried to install Teamviewer 7 in ubuntu 12.10 64bit with the 64bit
deb package downloaded from TW site, but Software Center says that
this deb was a bad package. Also tried to install from gdeb but
nothing.
