Package: xfree86-common,x11-common Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-3 I found the following problem while testing, with piuparts, upgrades from sarge via etch to sid of xfree86-common. The bug itself may instead be in x11-common, which, however, didn't exist in sarge as far as I can tell.
The problem, as reported by piuparts, is this: 1m58.9s ERROR: Package purging left files on system: /etc/init.d/x11-common /etc/rcS.d/S70x11-common I've checked it with a manual upgrade from sarge in a chroot. I couldn't figure out in a brief examination where the bug actually is: the X packaging is big and daunting (which is fine, given the size and importance of the package), and I didn't have the time to look at it in detail. The piuparts log file is about 170 kilobytes; if it helps, I'll be happy to mail it, but due to the size I'm not attaching it here. The command used for testing was: sudo piuparts -ab sarge.tar.gz -d sarge -d etch -d sid xfree86-common (where sarge.tar.gz is a tarball of the chroot containing a base sarge installation with minor modifications to configuration files, used for optimization, leave the "b sarge.tar.gz" part away to try it without a tarball). -- Never underestimate the power of a small tactical Lisp interpreter. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
