Package: safe-rm
Severity: normal
[As discussed at DebConf 14.]
I'm working on making it possible to merge /bin and /sbin into /usr/bin
and /usr/sbin respectively. As a first step towards that, I'm planning
to propose a Debian Policy change to prohibit conflicts between
/bin/$foo and /usr/bin/$foo, and likewise for sbin. safe-rm is one of
only two packages that contains such a conflict: it installs
/usr/bin/rm, which would conflict with /bin/rm.
In order to fix this while preserving safe-rm's default of automatic
protection on installation, safe-rm will need to divert and replace
/bin/rm. This will require quite a bit of care to do safely; see dash's
maintainer scripts for a safe procedure.
Since safe-rm currently uses Perl, this change will also require one of
two approaches: either provide a small wrapper C program that attempts
to run /usr/bin/safe-rm and falls back to /bin/rm if that fails, or
rewrite safe-rm in C.
