Package: logcheck-database
Version: 1.2.43a
When testing logcheck-database with piuparts I get the following error:
2m15.7s ERROR: Package purging left files on system:
/etc/logcheck
owned by: logcheck-database
/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.paranoid
owned by: logcheck-database
/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.paranoid/imap
owned by: logcheck-database
This happens when upgrading from sarge via etch to sid, and then
removing and purging the package. I admit that I don't understand why it
happens, since dpkg seems to know about the file, so it should remove
the imap file. A quick reading of the maintainer scripts of the package
didn't reveal the cause of the bug to me either.
The piuparts log file is about 170 kilobytes, so I don't attach it, even
compressed, but if you want it, I'd be happy to send it, just ask. It
doesn't seem to contain anything relevant, on a quick reading, but I may
have missed something, since I'm not an expert on logcheck-database.
