Package: kdump-tools Version: 1:1.6.2-0.1 Severity: serious Per Debian Policy, a conffile must not be modified by a maintainer script. We should make /etc/default/kdump-tools not be a conffile anymore, and create it during the installation.
We will probably need to do something with dpkg-maintscript-helper in some upgrade/removal cases, have a template/base file in /usr/share/kdump-tools/ that we use. As an additional requirement, as kdump-tools is usually tested by crashing the system after it's installed, the maintainer scripts should sync/fsync the files it touches. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, armhf Kernel: Linux 4.11.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages kdump-tools depends on: ii bsdmainutils 9.0.12+nmu1 ii debconf 1.5.63 ii file 1:5.32-1 ii init-system-helpers 1.49 ii kexec-tools 1:2.0.15-1 ii lsb-base 9.20170808 ii makedumpfile 1:1.6.2-0.1 kdump-tools recommends no packages. kdump-tools suggests no packages. -- debconf information: * kdump-tools/use_kdump: true
