Package: gpm
Version: 1.20.4-3.3
Severity: normal


Hi,

if I do a dpkg-reconfigure on gpm I get the following messages:

---snip---
root at bluewave:~# dpkg-reconfigure gpm
This is not dpkg install-info anymore, but GNU install-info
See the man page for ginstall-info for command line arguments
install-info: No dir file specified; try --help for more information.
root at bluewave:~# echo $?
1
---snip---

This happens on squeeze and sin version of the package.
If you need more informations please contact me.

Regards
Steven Malin
