[Bug 956107] Re: libc6-dbg relies on reportbug, does not depend on it

 

This may happen if a user presses "B" in aptitude and reportbug is not
installed. Aptitude doesn't seem to have a dependency on reportbug. So
it should probably "suggest" reportbug. Retitling the bug accordingly.

** Summary changed:

- libc6-dbg relies on reportbug, does not depend on it
+ aptitude should suggest reportbug as some features use it

Title:
  aptitude should suggest reportbug as some features use it

Status in “aptitude” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Following terminal output captured while installing libc6-dbg (and other packages) on a target with Ubuntu core filesystem.
  reportbug is not installed on the target

  aptitude
  sh: 1: reportbug: not found
  Reporting a bug in libc6-dbg:
  Preconfiguring packages ...
  (Reading database ... 60207 files and directories currently installed.)
  Preparing to replace libc6-dev 2.15-0ubuntu3 (using .../libc6-dev_2.15-0ubuntu5_armhf.deb) ...
  ...
  Setting up libc6-dbg (2.15-0ubuntu5) ...
  Press return to continue.

  I suspect the 'sh: 1:' line denotes an error in a script, which relies
  on reportbug.
