[Bug 1022198] Re: Upgrade to 5.0.0ubuntu20.10.04.6 fails due to date command

[Brian Murray]

Hello Swen, or anyone else affected,

Accepted base-files into quantal-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/base-
files/6.5ubuntu12 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from
verification-needed to verification-done.  If it does not, change the
tag to verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing
will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

** Changed in: base-files (Ubuntu Quantal)
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed
