# sent too early by accident Hi,
Andreas, if you are right with your observation (which I don't doubt), than dh_installinfo/debhelper needs to care about creating an empty prerm script. It cannot be the task of package maintainers, which are affected by this transition, to create and ship an empty prerm scripts for 2 releases (this is usually the time necssary to ship transition code in maintainer scripts) when there was never any self-written prerm script. Better let dh_installinfo output something non-functional like if [ "$1" = "remove" ] || [ "$1" = "upgrade" ]; then # do nothing, just create this script fi to create this script if it is necessary for a smooth transition.
