Package: xemacs21-support Version: 21.4.22-12 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install. As per definition of the release team this makes the package too buggy for a release, thus the severity. >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): Preparing to unpack .../xemacs21-support_21.4.22-12_all.deb ... Unpacking xemacs21-support (21.4.22-12) ... Setting up xemacs21-support (21.4.22-12) ... ln: failed to create symbolic link '/usr/lib/xemacs-21.4.22/etc': No such file or directory dpkg: error processing package xemacs21-support (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: xemacs21-support xemacs21-support needs to ship the empty directory /usr/lib/xemacs-21.4.22 Ship, don't mkdir! The maintainer scripts could probably be simplified regarding these symlinks, but right now I don't have the time to look into this. Or are the compat symlinks in /usr/lib/xemacs-21.4.22 now obsolete? I'm curious that this didn't show up in my earlier tests I did with my patch you applied recently. Did something else change in the meantime? cheers, Andreas
