Package: dpkg
Version: 1.13.24
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

some postrm scripts use dpkg-statoverride --force --remove to get rid
of overrides during purge. Recent versions of dpkg-statoverride give
an error message "No override present." in this case, which can not be
turned of via --quiet. They therefore redirect dpkg-statoverride's
stderr to /dev/null which switches off other errors as well.

Please consider making it possible to switch off this error message
without dumping all errors into the void.
Greetings
Marc
