Package: arb Version: 5.3-2 Severity: normal User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package left unowned files on the system after purge, which is a violation of policy 6.8 (or 10.8): http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#s-removedetails >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): 0m26.8s ERROR: WARN: Broken symlinks: /usr/lib/arb/lib/arb_tcp.dat -> /etc/arb/arb_tcp.dat 0m28.1s ERROR: FAIL: Package purging left files on system: /usr/lib/arb owned by: arb, libarb, arb-common /usr/lib/arb/lib owned by: libarb, arb-common /usr/lib/arb/lib/arb_tcp.dat not owned That link should be either shipped in the package so that it gets removed automatically by dpkg (works only if the link is static), or if it needs to be created by a maintainer script, the postrm needs to remove it. Also earlier while the package was installed, it contained a few broken symlinks: 0m23.2s ERROR: WARN: Broken symlinks: /usr/lib/arb/bin/clustalw -> ../../../bin/clustalw /usr/lib/arb/bin/protml -> ../../../bin/protml /usr/lib/arb/lib/inputMasks/format.readme -> ../help/input_mask_format.hlp (Since Recommends are not installed during the test, these broken links may be OK.) cheers, Andreas
