--- Begin Message ---Package: libgtest-dev Version: 1.8.0-1 Severity: serious Hi, libgtest-dev contains in 1.8.0-1 a symlink to the new on-disk location. That works for new installs, but doesn't on upgrades – a user ends up with an empty /usr/src/gtest in that case. You need to work with maintainerscripts here, see "man dpkg-maintscript-helper" and especially the section about dir_to_symlink for details on how and why. The justification for 'serious' is a bit of a stretch (pun intended) as the policy isn't explicitly saying that upgrades must produce a working package… but I hope you and/or the release team implicitly agree. :) In all likelyhood its the same with mock, but I am not using it… You should also update your README.Debian and the descriptions with the new paths and the transitional package as I guess you want to retire the old package/path some day and the longer the grace period the better… btw: Upstream seems to have retired their remark on compiling googletest on your own as I can't find it any longer on their website and e.g. in the RPM/BSD worlds you get a binary only. Best regards David Kalnischkies
