Package: mozilla-plugin-vlc Version: 2.0.0-1 Severity: serious User: [email protected] Usertags: piuparts
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package overwrites files from vlc-nox on upgrades from squeeze because it does not handle an old /usr/share/doc/mozilla-plugin-vlc symlink properly. This symlink should be removed in the preinst script on upgrades. dpkg intentioanlly does not replace directories with symlinks or vice versa. >From the attached log: 1m2.5s INFO: dirname part contains a symlink: /usr/share/doc/mozilla-plugin-vlc/changelog.Debian.gz != /usr/share/doc/vlc-nox/changelog.Debian.gz (mozilla-plugin-vlc) /usr/share/doc/mozilla-plugin-vlc/changelog.gz != /usr/share/doc/vlc-nox/changelog.gz (mozilla-plugin-vlc) /usr/share/doc/mozilla-plugin-vlc/copyright != /usr/share/doc/vlc-nox/copyright (mozilla-plugin-vlc) 1m3.6s ERROR: FAIL: debsums reports modifications inside the chroot: /usr/share/doc/mozilla-plugin-vlc/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/share/doc/mozilla-plugin-vlc/changelog.gz /usr/share/doc/mozilla-plugin-vlc/copyright cheers, Andreas
