Bug Description

Kubuntu Dapper system, all latest updates.

When I try to install the latest version of kubuntu-docs (6.06-2), apt-get runs into an error when trying to set up the package. Here's the output of what happens when it sets up the package:

Setting up kubuntu-docs (6.06-2) ...
/usr/share/doc-base/kubuntu-adept: cannot open control file for reading: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing kubuntu-docs (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 kubuntu-docs
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Checking the /usr/share/doc-base directory confirms there is no kubuntu-adept directory or file. Error in the update script, perhaps? Or does adept need an update, too?

Thanks for your bug. It should be fixed now in our svn and will disappear with the next upload.

Please stop confirming the bug. It is marked as confirmed, I've mentioned we've fixed it and it is waiting to be uploaded, and confirming again simply adds email spam to the people subscribed to the bug.

Multiple confirmations are often helpful, they give an indication of how many people are affected.
