Bug Description

Binary package hint: librep

TEST CASE:

On upgrade from Karmic to Lucid, my sawfish configuration broke. One example is:

sawfish-client is part of the sawfish package, which depends on rep-gtk, which depends on librep9. In Karmic, librep9 contains /usr/bin/rep, but it no longer does in Lucid. This breaks the sawfish package, as is clear from the example above.

This is perhaps a problem in the sawfish package instead, but I reported it here since I figured it's an incompatible change in the functionality provided by librep9.

Error:

> sawfish-client
exec: 2: rep: not found

Solution:

Install rep package as sawfish depends

Regression:
I think there is no options for regressions, the unique necessary change is to make sawfish depends on rep.
