Package: git Version: 1:1.7.7-1 Severity: serious I'm trying to install git after purging it:
# aptitude install git ... Setting up git (1:1.7.7-1) ... rmdir: cannot remove `/usr/share/doc/git/contrib/hooks': Not a directory I think this is a problem with this part of postinst: if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt '1:1.7.7-1' && test -d /usr/share/doc/git/contrib/hooks; then rmdir /usr/share/doc/git/contrib/hooks && .. dpkg --compare-versions "" lt '1:1.7.7-1' is true and test -d /usr/share/doc/git/contrib/hooks is also true even for symlink. 'man test' says "Except for -h and -L, all FILE-related tests dereference symbolic links.". So as far as I understand behavior of test -d is expected. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=uk_UA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=uk_UA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages git depends on: ii git-man 1:1.7.7-1 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libcurl3-gnutls 7.21.7-3 ii liberror-perl 0.17-1 ii libexpat1 2.0.1-7 ii perl-modules 5.12.4-6 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 Versions of packages git recommends: ii less 444-1 ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:5.9p1-1 ii patch 2.6.1-2 ii rsync 3.0.8-1 Versions of packages git suggests: pn git-arch <none> pn git-cvs <none> pn git-daemon-run | git-daemon-sysvinit <none> pn git-doc <none> pn git-el <none> pn git-email <none> pn git-gui <none> pn git-svn <none> pn gitk <none> pn gitweb <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
