E control-interpreter-without-predepends
The package contains a preinst maintainer script that uses
an unusual and non-essential interpreter but does not declare a
Pre-Depends on the package that provides this interpreter.
preinst scripts should be written using only essential
interpreters to avoid additional dependency complexity. Please do not
add a Pre-Depends without following the policy for doing so (Policy
section 3.5).
For more information please consult:
- Debian Policy Manual section 7.2
