[rancid] Problems after upgrade from 3.1 to 3.2 (SOLVED)

[Alex D.]

Hi,

as a quick workaround, i removed perllocal.pod from .deb archive.

# dpkg-deb -x libsocket-perl_2.018-1_amd64.deb tmp/
# dpkg-deb --control libsocket-perl_2.018-1_amd64.deb tmp/DEBIAN
# rm -r tmp/usr/lib/perl
# rm libsocket-perl_2.018-1_amd64.deb                   # remove "old" .deb
# dpkg -b tmp libsocket-perl_2.018-1_amd64.deb   # build modified .deb
# dpkg -i libsocket-perl_2.018-1_amd64.deb
(Reading database ... 44338 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking libsocket-perl (from libsocket-perl_2.018-1_amd64.deb) ...
Setting up libsocket-perl (2.018-1) ...
Processing triggers for man-db ...

And afterwards, i updated /usr/lib/perl/5.10/perllocal.pod manually.
Hope this helps.

Regards,
Alex
