It was easier than I thought to do this with piuparts, and I can confirm gregors test result with "real packages". Full log, including dpkg trigger debug info: https://people.debian.org/~anbe/864597/tgd.101-dfu89-smi89.log it used for jessie: desktop-file-utils_0.22-1+deb8noawait_amd64.deb shared-mime-info_1.3-1+deb8noawait_amd64.deb and for stretch: desktop-file-utils_0.23-1+test_amd64.deb shared-mime-info_1.8-1+test_amd64.deb (all with s/interest/interest-noawait/ in debian/triggers) Andreas
