Package: deborphan
Version: 1.7.23
Followup-For: Bug #391317


I second this bug: I had a not-fully-installed initramfs-tools, which
caused klibc-utils to be an orphan, which meant that wajig purge-orphans
tried to remove my kernel.

It's not a serious problem for a user who's paying attention, but it did
cause me quite some trouble to work out what was wrong.

Why can't deborphan treat packages that are not fully installed as
installed?
