Hi all, I'm having a bit of trouble with bug# 515945. The bug is caused by this:
- solr-tomcat5.5 needs some tweaking of the tomcat5.5 configuration. This configuration is placed in /etc/solr/tomcat.policy and symlinked to /etc/tomcat5.5/policy.d/ - When tomcat5.5 and solr-tomcat5.5 are installed at the same time, the following steps happen: - tomcat5.5 is unpacked - solr-tomcat5.5 is unpacked. /etc/solr/tomcat.policy is installed as /etc/solr/tomcat.policy.dpkg-new. The symlink is installed (but for the moment dangling) - tomcat5.5 is configured and started. This fails because of the dangling symlink - solr-tomcat5.5 is not configured because of the previous error, so the tomcat.policy.dpkg-new is not renamed to tomcat.policy and the symlink stays dangling. I've tried reversing the symlink (placing the actual conffile in /etc/tomcat5.5/policy and symlinking to /etc/solr/), but this causes similar problems when updating from the solr-tomcat5.5 version in Lenny. And it feels wrong. Does any of you have any ideas about: - how to deal with packages placing configuration items into other package's configuration directories properly? - how to proceed in the case of solr, including providing a proper upgrade path? Thanks for any help, Jan-Pascal
