Bug#525965: mdadm: install script returns 1

[Roberto Guerra]

Package: mdadm
Version: 2.6.29-1
Severity: important


Installing the package returns the following error:

/usr/share/debconf/confmodule: line 65: $@: unbound variable
dpkg: errore processando mdadm (--install):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

I had to remove mdadm to make synaptic going on.
I've updated a lot of packages after that and never encountered problems.
