Description of problem:
% debconf-updatepo 
/usr/bin/debconf-updatepo: line 130: /usr//share/intltool-debian/intltool-update: No such file or directory

(intltool-update is installed in /usr/bin/)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
po-debconf-1.0.16-7.nmu2.fc24.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Comment 1 Sergio Basto 2016-06-14 22:22:44 UTC
funny my F23 have /usr/share/intltool-debian/intltool-update 
rpm -qf  /usr/share/intltool-debian/intltool-update
intltool-0.51.0-3.fc23.noarch

but
ll /usr/share/intltool-debian
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 8 Mai  8  2013 /usr/share/intltool-debian -> /usr/bin

rpm -qf  /usr/bin/intltool-update
intltool-0.51.0-3.fc23.noarch


So maybe po-debconf should have this symbol link. I hope update po-debconf soon.

Comment 2 Sergio Basto 2016-06-14 22:29:12 UTC
Anyway this is a very strange package https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/intltool-debian last update 10 years ago ... 
Maybe we should ask to Debian to retire this package

Comment 3 Hedayat Vatankhah 2016-06-15 09:44:24 UTC
You should check rpm -qf  /usr/share/intltool-debian instead. It seems that rpm looks for the actual file rather than checking the path (so you might have created the symlink yourself).

It seems that it lives here: https://launchpad.net/intltool I wonder which one Debian itself is using.

Comment 4 Sergio Basto 2016-06-15 13:11:11 UTC
rpm -qf  /usr/share/intltool-debian
file /usr/share/intltool-debian is not owned by any package

I ask upstream : 
http://www.eenyhelp.com/answer/intltool-debian-need-by-po-debconf-debian-tools-fedora-help-216068807.html#r

no conclusion yet , just intltool-debian have 10 years , apt-get defaults to not use Deb822 format that is all about ...

Comment 5 Sergio Basto 2017-02-06 03:42:01 UTC
Hi, after some investigation I notice that Fedora misses intltool-debian [1] but we have same list of executable on intltool package.
I have, I don't remember why (Mai  8  2013) one symlink:

ll /usr/share/intltool-debian
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 8 Mai  8  2013 /usr/share/intltool-debian -> /usr/bin

Well, I don't know differences of intltool-debian vs intltool , neither found any answer in google , so maybe we should ask upstream , but seems a little difficult get any answer .

(later) getting sources with 
gpg --recv-keys BB3A68018649AA06
dget http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/pool/main/i/intltool-debian/intltool-debian_0.35.0+20060710.4.dsc

I see the patches , some maybe is better add intltool-debian package in Fedora , meanwhile should I add the symlink ? maybe be yes ...

Thanks for the report .

rpm -qf  /usr/share/intltool-debian 
file /usr/share/intltool-debian is not owned by any package

sources of intltool-debian is intlool version 0.35 + debian-intltool-patches , so for me the question is what packages needs intltool-debian ? only po-debconf ?

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2017-02-28 09:59:09 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle.
Changing version to '26'.

Comment 7 Sergio Basto 2017-09-11 00:30:26 UTC
*** Bug 1489569 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 9 Fedora End Of Life 2018-05-03 08:40:15 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 26 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 26. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '26'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 26 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.
