I'm pretty sure this is *not* a proper fix, but gitlab has now become uninstallable in stretch after gitlab-shell migrated, because gitlab-shell moved a conffile template out of /usr/share/doc, but didn't add Breaks: gitlab (<< 8.13.11+dfsg-4~) [...] Setting up gitlab (8.13.11+dfsg-2) ... Creating/updating gitlab user account... adduser: Warning: The home directory `/var/lib/gitlab' does not belong to the user you are currently creating. Making gitlab owner of /var/lib/gitlab... Creating runtime directories for gitlab... Updating file permissions... Configuring hostname and email... cp: cannot stat '/usr/share/doc/gitlab-shell/config.yml.example': No such file or directory dpkg: error processing package gitlab (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 [...] So let 8.13.11+dfsg-5 in, it's at least better than -2 :-( Andreas
