Package: gcom
Version: 0.32-2
Severity: serious
User: debian...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

a test with piuparts revealed that your package misses the copyright
file after an upgrade, which is a violation of Policy 12.5:
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s-copyrightfile

After the upgrade /usr/share/doc/$PACKAGE/ is just an empty directory.

This was observed on the following upgrade paths:

lenny -> squeeze -> ...

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

7m24.3s ERROR: WARN: Inadequate results from running adequate!
  gcom: missing-copyright-file /usr/share/doc/gcom/copyright

  MISSING COPYRIGHT FILE: /usr/share/doc/gcom/copyright
  # ls -lad /usr/share/doc/gcom

Additional info may be available here:
https://wiki.debian.org/MissingCopyrightFile

Note that dpkg intentionally does not replace directories with symlinks
and vice versa, you need the maintainer scripts to do this.
See in particular the end of point 4 in
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#s-unpackphase

It is recommended to use the dpkg-maintscript-helper commands
'dir_to_symlink' and 'symlink_to_dir' (available since dpkg 1.17.14)
to perform the conversion, ideally using d/$PACKAGE.mainstscript.
Do not forget to add 'Pre-Depends: ${misc:Pre-Depends}' in d/control.
See dpkg-maintscript-helper(1) and dh_installdeb(1) for details.


But since this has been a transitional package since squeeze,
maybe it is easiest to just drop it and add unversioned Breaks+Replaces
against it to comgt to ensure the buggy package is removed on upgrades.


cheers,

Andreas
