Ok, admittedly look a bit weird.

However, /even if/ you found a bug in dpkg, I would /still/ recommend using interest-noawait as interest(-await) will break redmine when there are reverse dependencies that /do/ ship files in those directories. E.g. redmine + redmine-plugin-recaptcha should be sufficient to trigger this issue. I cannot remember offhand the necessary dpkg invocations to trigger the issue (emulating an possible upgrade situation), but if necessary I can look it up.
