Subject: Bug#3738: /usr/doc/copyright/debian.README incorrectly installed

From: Yves Arrouye <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 10 Jul 1996 00:20:44 +0200

Package: acct
Version: 6.2-1

The acct package installs /usr/doc/copyright/debian.README instead of
/usr/doc/copyright/acct.

Since dpkg told me it was overwriting an existing file I suspect that
other packages may do the same? Maybe this is something that could be
tested automatically by the wonderful integrity test scripts already in
use?

Yves.

Darn. The debian.rules used $(acct) where it should have used $(package).

Fixed in acct-6.2-2 which is currently uploading to master.
