Package: bfh-container Version: 20211009-31 Severity: serious Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: dep17
Hi, I'm sorry to tell you that I still got the duplicated diversions wrong. The full story is at https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2025/01/msg00125.html. In any case, I managed to reproduce bad scenarios for bfh-container. The main issue here is that --rename may be specified for the canonicalized diversion when the actual file is aliased and then it may be renamed in a bad way making dpkg unhappy. Additionally, the order of diversions was wrong as diversion targets must not overlap. Adding the canonicalized diversion was failing as the aliased diversion had not yet changed its target. I'm attaching a patch that fixes both and also attaching my test cases (that are all passing now). I added more comments such that the mess becomes easier to understand by my future self and others. Helmut
