[Warning] dpkg: warning missing maintainer

[shubhams]

I have installed fast-p from the precompiled binary fast-p_0.1.7_linux_amd64.deb for Ubuntu 18.04. Everything works fine but when I run:
$ sudo apt update
or
$ sudo apt upgrade
I get a warning saying:

dpkg: warning: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line <line-number> package 'fast-p':
 missing maintainer

I think this warning would go away if the package maintainer is added in the precompiled binary.

Output of $ uname -a:

Linux shubham-Z510 4.15.0-33-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 15 16:00:05 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Output of $ lsb_release -a:

Thanks for the heads-up. Last build (v0.1.8) https://github.com/bellecp/fast-p/releases should have fixed the warning. Can you confirm?

Yep, I don't see the warning anymore.
Thanks 👍
Closing the issue.
