Oh. Got it. Sorry for the confusion. I updated the package to do what you described in this bugreport: * 'postinst configure' always installs the alternative * 'prerm remove' removes the alternative * 'postrm remove' and 'postrm disappear' remove the alternative However, now we have an extra lintian warning, update-alternatives-remove-called-in-postrm ( http://lintian.debian.org/tags/update-alternatives-remove-called-in-postrm.html ). Here's the snipped I used to add the code: # == begin update-alternatives maintscript fragment == # This is a script fragment used in postinst, prerm and postrm maintscripts. # Set up /usr/bin/qemu alternative to be one the qemu-system emulators. # See #722914 for details about how it is done # we don't do anything if update-alternatives is not available if [ -x /usr/sbin/update-alternatives ]; then arches="@ARCH@" # our architectures case "$DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_NAME:$1" in postinst:configure ) for arch in $arches ; do # Set i386 as highest priority, # as it has been the default qemu for quite some time. case $arch in i386) prio=20;; *) prio=10;; esac update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/qemu qemu \ /usr/bin/qemu-system-$arch $prio done;; prerm:remove | postrm:remove | postrm:disappear ) for arch in $arches ; do update-alternatives --remove qemu /usr/bin/qemu-system-$arch done;; esac fi # /usr/sbin/update-alternatives # == end update-alternatives maintscript fragment == This is added to postinst, prerm and postrm scripts. The lintian warning in question appears to make some sense. So now I'm not sure what to do with this...
