Package: fontconfig-config Version: 2.12.3-0.2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I previously had a /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-hinting-slight.conf to use the hintslight style. When I tried to upgrade from stretch to the current 2.12.3-0.2, dpkg --configure failed: Setting up fontconfig-config (2.12.3-0.2) ... Installing new version of config file /etc/fonts/fonts.conf ... ln: failed to create symbolic link '/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-hinting-slight.conf': File exists dpkg: error processing package fontconfig-config (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Even if there is no previous 10-hinting-slight.conf, the problem occurs on a downgrade-upgrade round-trip. IMHO a reasonable behavior might be to check whether /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-hinting-*.conf exists and skip the linking in the affirmative case. Best regards, Timo
