Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package left unowned files on
the system after purge, which is a violation of policy 6.8 (or 10.8):
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#s-removedetails
Filing this as important as having a piuparts clean archive is a release
goal since lenny.

If the directory and links were shipped in the package, dpkg would clean them
up ...
