Dear Maintainer,
while upgrading emacs24 from 24.5+1-1 to 24.5+1-2, I got the following
error:
,----
| [...]
| Install yasnippet for emacs24
| install/yasnippet: Handling install of emacsen flavor emacs24
| install/yasnippet: byte-compiling for emacs24
| cp: cannot create symbolic link ‘./yasnippet.el’ to
| ‘../../../emacs/site-lisp/yasnippet/yasnippet.el’: File exists
| ERROR: install script from yasnippet package failed
| dpkg: error while cleaning up:
| subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
| Errors were encountered while processing:
| /var/cache/apt/archives/emacs24_24.5+1-2_amd64.deb
`----
After fixing this by adding -f to the cp call, I noticed that gzip asks
stupid questions about overwriting the Install.log if it already exists,
so I fixed that too.
Cheers,
-Hilko
