Public bug reported:
/etc/cron.weekly/dconf is just a symlink on /usr/bin/dconf which is not
removed on package removal. So if you just remove the package but don't
purge it, you will get weekly mails arguing:
run-parts: failed to stat component /etc/cron.weekly/dconf: No such file
or directory
Please either
a) remove that symlink and make a shell script out of it which first checks, if
/usr/bin/dconf exists and only then calls it, or
b) remove that symlink in the postinst script on removal already.
I'd prefer a) as it's the cleaner way.
