Bug Description

Binary package hint: sqldeveloper-package

In "tofrodos" package for lucid there are not commands "unix2dos" and "dos2unix". Only commands "fromdos" and "todos" exists.

possible solution:
change line 46 in "/usr/bin/make-sqldeveloper-package"
from:
   DOS2UNIX="dos2unix"
to:
   DOS2UNIX="fromdos"

I had this issue, and confirm using "fromdos" will correct the issue.

I really don't know why it isn't there
on my machine (32 bit) it is there.

Did you install sqldeveloper-package?
$> aptitude install sqldeveloper-package

My old Ubuntu 6.10 system reports:

$ ls -alF /usr/bin/dos2unix
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Dec 22 2006 /usr/bin/dos2unix -> fromdos*
$ file /usr/bin/fromdos
 $ ls -alF /usr/bin/fromdos
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9780 Jun 15 2006 /usr/bin/fromdos*
/usr/bin/fromdos: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.0, stripped

On Ubuntu 10.04, it seems that the package 'tofrodos' no longer adds these symlinks.

On reflection, I will convert my scripts that use 'dos2unix' to 'fromdos'. That seems the most robust in the long term. Robbie Morrison, Berlin, Germany.
