Package: pepperflashplugin-nonfree
Version: 1.5
Severity: serious
Justification: §10.7.3: conffiles must not be modified by maintainer scripts
Hi!
The postinst for pepperflashplugin-nonfree runs update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree
which modifies /etc/chromium/default. This file is (a) a conffile and conffiles
must not be modified from maintainer scripts [§10.7.3] and (b) is a conffile
owned by another package and modifying the files of another package is not
permitted [§10.7.4]. As a result of modifying a conffile, the admin is also
then given unnecessary prompts to deal with changes to this conffile in
future package upgrades which must not happen [§10.7.3].
(This also happens with the version in wheezy-backports.)
An abridged installation log is as follows:
# apt-get install debsums chromium
[...]
# debsums -a -s
# apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree

Description:
pepperflashplugin-nonfree - Pepper Flash Player - browser plugin
Closes: 760388
Changes:
pepperflashplugin-nonfree (1.8) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Removed support for /etc/chromium/default. Closes: #760388.
+ etc-chromium-default.txt: Removed.
+ debian/etc/chromium.d/pepperflashplugin-nonfree: Added.
+ debian/dirs: Added etc/chromium.d/.
+ debian/install: add file in etc/chromium.d/.
+ update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree: Removed dealing with
/etc/chromium/default and /etc/chromium.d.
+ debian/control: Conflicts: chromium (<< 37.0.2062.120-4). This package
doesn't really conflict with these old versions of chromium, but it makes
explicit that pepperflashplugin-nonfree isn't useful for versions of
chromium still using /etc/chromium/default, as agreed on debian-release
on Sun, 12 Oct 2014 15:38:03 +0200.
