Package: samba4 Version: 4.0.0~beta2+dfsg1-3 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts
Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package removes files that
were installed by another package.
The removed files were already present before the package was installed,
they may have been shipped or created by a dependency.
If a directory is used by several packages, all should ship it as part
of the package (possibly empty, using $package.dirs to create it), and
no package should mkdir/rmdir it in the maintainer scripts as dpkg will
take care of this.
>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):
0m48.7s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have disappeared:
/var/cache/samba/ owned by: samba4-common-bin, samba-common
/var/lib/samba/ owned by: samba4, samba-common
/var/log/samba/ owned by: samba-common
In this test only the samba4 package was purged, all dependencies are
still installed.
samba4.postrm purge performs:
# Remove Samba's state files, both volatile and non-volatile
rm -Rf /var/run/samba/ /var/cache/samba/ /var/lib/samba
# Remove log files
rm -Rf /var/log/samba/
(the debconf db_purge is run twice, there is no need to add this
manually to the maintainer script as dh_installdebconf already adds it)
cheers,
