Dear maintainer, Please find attached a diff for a NMU proposal (as git format-patch output) removing those snippets. If I do not hear from you I plan to upload it somewhere next week. Regards, -- Agustin
From a7dbe0ea8ed6f8d289989004570b5630424eba57 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Agustin Martin Domingo <agmar...@debian.org> Date: Sun, 18 Dec 2011 05:39:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Remove obsolete debhelper snippets calling update-openoffice-dicts (Closes: #651821). myspell-el-gr 0.8-1 unconditionally calls update-openoffice-dicts from maintainer scripts, without first checking for availability. myspell-el-gr (0.7-1) did not call update-openoffice-dicts from maintainer scripts in any way. Just drop that snippets, they are no longer needed at all even for squeeze. --- debian/changelog | 8 ++++++++ debian/postinst | 11 ----------- debian/postrm | 10 ---------- 3 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 debian/postinst delete mode 100644 debian/postrm diff --git a/debian/changelog b/debian/changelog index 42e3f00..2504c24 100644 --- a/debian/changelog +++ b/debian/changelog @@ -1,3 +1,11 @@ +myspell-el-gr (0.8-1.1) unstable; urgency=low + + * Non-maintainer upload. + * Remove obsolete debhelper snippets calling update-openoffice-dicts + (Closes: #651821). + + -- Agustin Martin Domingo <agmar...@debian.org> Sun, 18 Dec 2011 05:38:56 +0100 + myspell-el-gr (0.8-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release diff --git a/debian/postinst b/debian/postinst deleted file mode 100644 index 089178e..0000000 --- a/debian/postinst +++ /dev/null @@ -1,11 +0,0 @@ -#!/bin/sh - -set -e - -if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then - update-openoffice-dicts -fi - -#DEBHELPER# - -exit 0 diff --git a/debian/postrm b/debian/postrm deleted file mode 100644 index 14a7380..0000000 --- a/debian/postrm +++ /dev/null @@ -1,10 +0,0 @@ -#!/bin/sh - -set -e -if [ "$1" = "remove" ]; then - update-openoffice-dicts -fi - -#DEBHELPER# - -exit 0 -- 1.7.2.5
