Package: php-htmlpurifier Version: 4.6.0-1 Severity: serious Hi,
When installing php-htmlpurifier on a testing system, I get the folowing error messages: ,---- | Selecting previously unselected package php-htmlpurifier. | Preparing to unpack .../php-htmlpurifier_4.6.0-1_all.deb ... | dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: original symlink target is not an absolute path | dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/php-htmlpurifier_4.6.0-1_all.deb (--unpack): | subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 | dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: original symlink target is not an absolute path | dpkg: error while cleaning up: | subprocess new post-removal script returned error exit status 1 `---- Indeed, the debian/maintscript involves relative symlinks. However, according to dpkg's changelog, such relative symlinks have only been supported since 1.17.14. So the php-htmlpurifier currently in testing can't be installed by the dpkg currently in testing. I guess a simple versioned dependency would fix that (alternatively, a rewrite of the maintscript to use absolute targets for the symlinks).
