Regarding the version in sid (2.7.0-22), this puzzles me a bit: > + - Make snort-rules-default.postrm run with 'set +e' and append '|| true' > to > + rmdir calls so that the script does not abort if the directories are > not > + empty. > -set -e > +set +e This is incoherent: set +e precisely ignores errors, so the "|| true" is not needed. set -e OTOH makes the script terminate of errors, hence the "|| true" could be needed for commands that you know could potentially fail.
