Package: code-aster-engine,code-aster-mpi-engine
Version: 10.6.0-1-4
Severity: serious
User: debian...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts
Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package modifies conffiles.
This is forbidden by the policy, see
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-config-files
At least I assume by its name that this is a conffile, but then it needs
to be placed in /etc (with perhaps a symlink in /usr).
10.7.2: "Any configuration files created or used by your package must
reside in /etc. [...]"
10.7.3: "[...] The easy way to achieve this behavior is to make the
configuration file a conffile. [...] This implies that the default
version will be part of the package distribution, and must not be
modified by the maintainer scripts during installation (or at any
other time)."
Note that once a package ships a modified version of that conffile,
dpkg will prompt the user for an action how to handle the upgrade of
this modified conffile (that was not modified by the user).
Further in 10.7.3: "[...] must not ask unnecessary questions
(particularly during upgrades) [...]"
If a configuration file is customized by a maintainer script after
having asked some debconf questions, it may not be marked as a
conffile. Instead a template could be installed in /usr/share and used
by the postinst script to fill in the custom values and create (or
update) the configuration file (preserving any user modifications!).
This file must be removed during postrm purge.
ucf(1) may help with these tasks.
See also http://wiki.debian.org/DpkgConffileHandling
In https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/09/msg00412.html and
followups it has been agreed that these bugs are to be filed with
severity serious.
debsums reports modification of the following files,
from the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

Changes:
aster (11.3.0-2-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Package code-aster-test: fixed list of tests without homard
* Updated to upstream version 11.3.0-2
* Various enhancements to the rules file
The rules file has been reorganized and now it has the targets
build-arch and build-indep; moreover the build-arch target has
been split in build-serial and build-mpi targets.
* Removed reference to the actual version in the installation path
Now the installed version of code-aster-*engine packages is no
longer under /usr/lib/codeaster/${VERSION} but under
/usr/lib/codeaster/STABLE for serial version and
/usr/lib/codeaster/STABLE_MPI for parallel version; the postinst
script however creates symlink with the actual version number
pointing to STABLE and STABLE_MPI to recreate the usual path;
target get-orig-source has been updated accordingly.
* config.txt is no longer modified by postinst (Closes: #688737)
* Created files under /var/lib/codeaster with the installed version
The postinst scripts now create files in /var/lib/codeaster with
the names of the installed engine versions; this should help in
fixing bug #670567 in the right way.
* files in the code-aster-test package are now under /usr/share
Files contained in the code-aster-test package are common data
files; thus, they are now under /usr/share/codeaster directory.
Also, the script as_test.sh is now under /usr/bin
* Now it builds using the current gcc compiler (4.7) and not gcc-4.6
* Updated to make use of mumps-4.10.0 (Closes: #671945)
* Fixed typo in description of code-aster-engine-dbg package
(Closes: #698588)
