--- Begin Message ---Package: libpopplerkit0 Version: 0.0.20051227svn-11 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts Hi, an upgrade test with piuparts revealed that your package installs files over existing symlinks and possibly overwrites files owned by other packages. This usually means an old version of the package shipped a symlink but that was later replaced by a real (and non-empty) directory. This kind of overwriting another package's files cannot be detected by dpkg. This was observed on the following upgrade paths: testing -> unstable For /usr/share/doc/PACKAGE this may not be problematic as long as both packages are installed, ship byte-for-byte identical files and are upgraded in lockstep. But once one of the involved packages gets removed, the other one will lose its documentation files, too, including the copyright file, which is a violation of Policy 12.5: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#copyright-information For other overwritten locations anything interesting may happen. Note that dpkg intentionally does not replace directories with symlinks and vice versa, you need the maintainer scripts to do this. See in particular the end of point 4 in https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#details-of-unpack-phase-of-installation-or-upgrade It is recommended to use the dpkg-maintscript-helper commands 'dir_to_symlink' and 'symlink_to_dir' (available since dpkg 1.17.14) to perform the conversion, ideally using d/$PACKAGE.maintscript. See dpkg-maintscript-helper(1) and dh_installdeb(1) for details. >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): 1m20.3s ERROR: installs objects over existing directory symlinks: /usr/lib/GNUstep/Frameworks/PopplerKit.framework/Versions/1.0/Resources/Info-gnustep.plist (libpopplerkit0) != /usr/share/GNUstep/Frameworks/PopplerKit.framework/Versions/1.0/Info-gnustep.plist (?) /usr/lib/GNUstep/Frameworks/PopplerKit.framework/Versions/1.0/Resources -> ../../../../../../share/GNUstep/Frameworks/PopplerKit.framework/Versions/1.0 Excerpts from debdiff libpopplerkit0_0.0.20051227svn-10+b1_amd64.deb libpopplerkit0_0.0.20051227svn-11_amd64.deb Files in first .deb but not in second ------------------------------------- -rw-r--r-- root/root /usr/share/GNUstep/Frameworks/PopplerKit.framework/Versions/1.0/Info-gnustep.plist -rw-r--r-- root/root /usr/share/doc/libpopplerkit0/changelog.Debian.amd64.gz lrwxrwxrwx root/root /usr/lib/GNUstep/Frameworks/PopplerKit.framework/Versions/1.0/Resources -> ../../../../../../share/GNUstep/Frameworks/PopplerKit.framework/Versions/1.0 Files in second .deb but not in first ------------------------------------- -rw-r--r-- root/root /usr/lib/GNUstep/Frameworks/PopplerKit.framework/Versions/1.0/Resources/Info-gnustep.plist Was the move of Info-gnustep.plist from /usr/share to /usr/lib intentional? The easies fix would be to move it back to /usr/share and let dpkg clean up the unused and messed up paths/symlinks in /usr/lib. cheers, Andreas

(binary-post-install/libpopplerkit0): Restore target and create symlinks in a shell loop using the new hardcoded variable above. This has to be done after gsdh_gnustep is being run but since it is executed after dh_link, using a .links file leads to unintented move of the .plist file from /usr/share to /usr/lib (Closes: #1035984). Thanks, Andreas Beckmann! * debian/libpopplerkit0.links: Delete; it was a bad idea that resulted in yet another RC bug.
