Title:
checkinstall fails to add files to dpkg conffiles
Status in checkinstall package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in checkinstall package in Debian:
New
Bug description:
checkinstall 1.6.2-3ubuntu1 has a command like this to create
conffiles:
find -L $BUILD_DIR/etc -type f 2> /dev/null | sed -e "s,$BUILD_DIR,," | \
> $BUILD_DIR/DEBIAN/conffiles
It is attempting to pipe and redirect the output, resulting in an
empty conffiles. Removing the second pipe
find -L $BUILD_DIR/etc -type f 2> /dev/null | sed -e "s,$BUILD_DIR,," \
> $BUILD_DIR/DEBIAN/conffiles
correctly creates the conffiles file.
