libgambit4-dev is still missing a Breaks: libgambc4-dev. This allows install/remove sequences where libgambc4-dev remains installed, but gets crippled, as in the attached log: 1m11.4s DEBUG: Modified(user, group, mode, size, target): /var/lib/dpkg/info/libgambc4-dev.list expected(root, root, - 100644, 351, None) != found(root, root, - 100644, 329, None) 1m11.4s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have disappeared: /usr/include/gambit.h owned by: libgambit4-dev:amd64 1m11.4s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have been modified: /var/lib/dpkg/info/libgambc4-dev.list not owned This is a serious bug violating policy 7.6, see https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces and also see the footnote that describes this incorrect behavior https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ (old: footnotes.html#f53) [footnote permalink broken (#879048), search for /To see why/] Andreas
