[parisc-linux] Bug#114145: palo: 1- why on i386?; 2- postinst errors (fwd)

[Paul Bame]

Anyone want to handle this packaging-related palo problem?  The x86
package is so we can build debian CDs if I remember correctly.

Package: palo
Version: N/A
Severity: important

First problem:
Why would this package be automatically installed on i386 systems?

 Description: Linux boot loader for parisc/hppa
  This package contains the parisc boot loader itself, plus palo which
  is the boot media management tool as lilo is for i386.

This seems inappropriate to be installed on i386, yet it was automatically
chosen for such.



Second problem:
Postinst errors:

Setting up palo (0.94) ...
cannot open dhelp file '/usr/share/doc/palo/html/.dhelp': at /usr/sbin/install-docs line 559.
dpkg: error processing palo (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 palo
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
