Package: icedove Version: 2.0.0.0-3 Severity: serious
The upgrade 1.5 -> 2.0 still doesn't convert the directories in
/usr/lib/icedove to symlinks correctly. The chrome directory is converted,
but defaults and greprefs are not; the symptom is no longer a segfault, but
the icedove window comes up empty.
In the preinst we have:
if test -d /usr/lib/icedove/defaults; then
if test ! -d /usr/share/icedove/defaults; then
mkdir -p /usr/share/icedove/
cp -r /usr/lib/icedove/defaults /usr/share/icedove/defaults
else
rm -rf /usr/lib/icedove/defaults
fi
fi
So that doesn't actually remove the old directory if the /usr/share
equivalent did not already exist. (This explains why chrome is converted,
because 1.5 did contain a /usr/share/chrome directory.)
I imagine you want to move the rm out of the else, or change the cp to mv.
