No further info is needed. I actually realised the issue before and
fixed it in r-cran-rmarkdown_1.10+dfsg-2. So if you remove
r-cran-rmarkdown_1.10+dfsg-1 and install r-cran-rmarkdown_1.10+dfsg-2
you will succeed with your test.
Unfortunately the issue persists since dpkg can not replace a symlink
with a directory or vice versa and thus if you have installed
r-cran-rmarkdown_1.10+dfsg-1 before the symlink issue remains.
This can be solved by using symlink_to_dir (see
dpkg-maintscript-helper(1)) and I tried this. Unfortunately my
debian/maintscript[2] does not work (despite the resulting
preinst script looks like
#!/bin/sh
set -e
# Automatically added by dh_installdeb/11.3.5
dpkg-maintscript-helper symlink_to_dir
/usr/lib/R/site-library/rmarkdown/rmd/h/bootstrap-3.3.5
../../../../../../share/javascript/bootstrap 1.10\+dfsg-2 -- "$@"
# End automatically added section
My question to debian-mentors list is now: Am I missing something? How
can I turn the link
/usr/lib/R/site-library/rmarkdown/rmd/h/bootstrap-3.3.5 successfully into
a dir?
Thanks for any help
Andreas.
