Control: found -1 2.6.1-14.1

That did not work:

  dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: directory '/usr/share/doc/cups-pdf' contains files not owned by package cups-pdf:all, cannot switch to symlink

that was with dpkg 1.17.23, looks a bit like dir_to_symlink is not working 
correctly.

at the failing point we have:

so perhaps it's better to give up on dir_to_symlink for this transitional package
and use symlink_to_dir instead and put the files back in there ...
