[ Impact ]
pure-ftpd will fail to upgrade from Bionic to Focal. It will give an
error as below:
dpkg: error processing archive

[ Test Plan ]
Complete test plan:
1. Use a Bionic system
2. Install pure-ftpd
- 3. Execute "do-release-upgrade" to upgrade the system to Focal
+ 3. Execute "do-release-upgrade" to upgrade the system to Focal.
+ 4. Upgrade the system to Jammy to confirm next upgrade is not broken.
+
A quick test plan: I have made a PPA with pure-ftpd from Bionic but rebuilt
for Focal.
1. Use a Focal system.
2. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sudipmuk/pure-ftpd
3. sudo apt update
4. sudo apt-get install pure-ftpd=1.0.46-1ubuntu18.04.1~ppa1
pure-ftpd-common=1.0.46-1ubuntu18.04.1~ppa1
5. sudo apt-get upgrade
With the fixed package, pure-ftpd will now upgrade to the version in
Focal.
+
+ Redo the quick testplan for pure-ftpd-mysql, pure-ftpd-ldap, pure-ftpd-
+ postgresql to confirm they do not have any regression. These binaries do
+ not have this original issue.
+
[ Where problems could occur ]
It does not change any part of the code, only change is in the d/rules
file which removes the symlink from /usr/share/doc/pure-ftpd* to pure-
ftpd-common and instead uses dpkg-maintscript-helper scripts to manage
the symlink. There should not be any regression in the software for this
change.
[ Other Info ]
This has been fixed in Debian by pure-ftpd/1.0.49-4.1 and so Jammy
onwards is not affected.
