Thanks for your report. The python preinst only calls the pre-rtupdate hooks on upgrades, not on initial installs. For a python upgrade, the old python interpreter and a symlink pointing to the old version should still be there at the time the preinst is called. Do you have a sample command or use case reproducing the issue you're actually seeing? > You should use only the essential packages in the pre-rtupdate > script; otherwise it's likely that flumotion will break next update > of the default version of Python. I'm not sure where the requirement for Essential packages come from; this is true for "preinst install", but I dont think it is for "preinst upgrade", is it?
