It looks like we're affected by a recently fixed goreleaser issue: goreleaser/nfpm#742

[AnomalRoil]

This is fixed in #2729 we might want to release a quick patch release to fix this, since it's breaking many people @dominikschulz ?

[dominikschulz]

Will do that tonight.

The proper fix would had been to add <space>. as placeholders for an empty line.

Description: gopass password manager - full featured CLI replacement for pass, designed for teams.
 .
 gopass is a simple but powerful password manager for your terminal. It is a
 Pass implementation in Go that can be used as a drop in replacement.
 .
 Every secret lives inside of a gpg (or: age) encrypted textfile. These secrets
 can be organized into meaninful hierachies and are by default versioned using
 git.
 .
 This package contains the main gopass binary from gopass.pw. In Debian and
 Ubuntu there is an unfortunate name clash with another gopass package. That is
 completely different and not related to this package.

[dominikschulz]

No, I think this should be done by nfpm. But removing the empty lines might be an acceptable workaround.

Is there a chance to get an actual new release soon? The currently released Debian packages still have this problem.

[dominikschulz]

Absolutely. I will try to cut one today.

Thanks a lot! I can confirm that the 1.15.11 release works fine on Ubuntu and Debian.
