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. >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): 0m27.7s ERROR: WARN: Broken symlinks: /var/lib/boinc-client/ca-bundle.crt -> /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt /var/lib/boinc-client/gui_rpc_auth.cfg -> /etc/boinc-client/gui_rpc_auth.cfg /var/lib/boinc-client/remote_hosts.cfg -> /etc/boinc-client/remote_hosts.cfg /var/lib/boinc-client/cc_config.xml -> /etc/boinc-client/cc_config.xml /var/lib/boinc-client/global_prefs_override.xml -> /etc/boinc-client/global_prefs_override.xml 0m29.1s ERROR: FAIL: Package purging left files on system: /var/lib/boinc-client not owned /var/lib/boinc-client/ca-bundle.crt not owned /var/lib/boinc-client/cc_config.xml not owned /var/lib/boinc-client/global_prefs_override.xml not owned /var/lib/boinc-client/gui_rpc_auth.cfg not owned /var/lib/boinc-client/remote_hosts.cfg not owned If the directory and links were shipped in the package, dpkg would clean them up ... cheers, Andreas
