[Pkg-awstats-devel] Bug#582602: awstats: Unknown options of mktemp: "mktemp: invalid option -- '-'

[Vincent Danjean]

Package: awstats
Version: 6.9.5~dfsg-3
Severity: serious
Justification: Bad dependencies

awstats uses the --tmpdir option of mktemp that is not present in the
lenny version of the mktemp package.
You can either:
- remove the use of this option
- add a versionned dependency on mktemp
- or add a versionned dependency on coreutils

I would suggest the last suggestion: in sqeeze, /bin/mktemp is provided by
the coreutils package; the mktemp package is only a transitional package.

    Vincent

PS: as mktemp is not used in the main awstats scripts but in add-on scripts
(update.sh and buildstatic.sh), you might want to lower this dependency to a
