Bug Description

Binary package hint: friendly-recovery

While doing a "apt-get install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard" on a cdebootstrap'ed hardy system I got the following error:

.

Selecting previously deselected package friendly-recovery.
Unpacking friendly-recovery (from .../friendly-recovery_0.0+bzr20070723_all.deb) ...

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

upstart-compat-sysv is a depends of ubuntu-minimal, friendly-recovery is a recommends of ubuntu-standard.
As aptitude will pull recommends in by default, this is possibly a release blocker for hardy.
