[ubuntu-dev] Bug#926633: FutureWarning: Possible nested set at position 1

[Nicolas Patrois]

Package: gdebi
Version: 0.9.5.7+nmu3
Severity: minor
Tags: l10n

Dear Maintainer,

I install a deb package with gdebi, gdebi asks if I really want to install the
package, I answer o (oui ie yes in French).
In French:
Voulez-vous installer le paquet logiciel ? [o/N] :o

Immediately, gdebi prints:
/usr/bin/gdebi:113: FutureWarning: Possible nested set at position 1
  c = findall("[[(](\S+)/\S+[])]", msg)[0].lower()

I suspect this line near the end of /usr/bin/gdebi are a bit buggy:

    try:
        c = findall("[[(](\S+)/\S+[])]", msg)[0].lower()
    except IndexError:
        c = "y"

Maybe answering y would solve the warning.
