Package: x11-common Version: 1:7.0.14 Severity: grave The postinst contains the following: if [ -d "/usr/X11R6/bin" ] && [ ! -L /usr/X11R6/bin ]; then rmdir "/usr/X11R6/bin" || die "Could not remove /usr/X11R6/bin. Is not yet empty. Please remove any items still in the directory. You can move them back after the install has completed successfully." fi
When I met this error I first checked whether it was April 1st or something. I don't think this is acceptable to stomp on such a minor error, especially when previous upgrades happen to let some files in this place. Please consider moving these files to /usr/bin directly if they don't conflict with anything, or backuping them elsewhere. BTW, the following is also incorrect: if ! [ -e "/usr/X11R6/bin" ]; then ln -s /usr/bin /usr/X11R6/bin || die "Could not link /usr/bin to /usr/X11R6/bin" fi it should be: "ln -s ../bin /usr/X11R6/bin" instead. See policy 10.5. -- .''`.
