Bug#958414: Latest equivs version 2.3.0 breaks mk-build-deps

[Otto Kekäläinen]

Package: equivs
Version: 2.3.0

I noticed my builds started failing today with error message:

Step 4/7 : RUN DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive mk-build-deps -r -i
control     -t 'apt-get -y -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=yes
--no-install-recommends'

-r -i control     -t 'apt-get -y -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=yes

I am pretty sure this is related to the recent equivs 2.3.0 release,
but I have not figured out the details yet.


Run the attached Dockerfile to reproduce.
