Package: extlinux
Version: 2:4.05+dfsg-6
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: leaves system in unbootable state if updating in wheezy

Hi,

when preparing a patch for #681426 I noticed that after updating
the debian wheezy extlinux theme (by installing an updated version of
syslinux-themes-debian-wheezy) running extlinux-update does not
update the theme in /boot/extlinux/themes/debian-wheezy but instead
copies the new theme to /boot/extlinux/themes/debian-wheezy/extlinux .
Therefore, the old theme is then used.

This means that systems which had the broken theme (as described in
#681426) installed and upgrade to a newer theme and run extlinux-update
still won't boot.

The problem can be fixed by removing the old theme before copying
the new one:
