Followup-For: Bug #685469 Control: tag -1 patch Hi,
I'm attaching my sugggested patch to fix this problem. The fixup should only be performed by ekg2.postinst - ekg2-core should have nothing to do as everything is fine within this package. Successfully tested in piuparts tests: sid install, purge sid install old, upgrade to new, purge squeeze, install from squeeze-backports, distupgrade to wheezy, purge Andreas
