Bug#437411: unable to delete old directory solution = ?

2007-08-12 Thread Dan Jacobson
Package: xfonts-encodings
Version: 1:1.0.2-2
Severity: wishlist

One sees:
Unpacking replacement xfonts-encodings ...
dpkg: warning - unable to delete old directory `/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts': 
Directory not empty
dpkg: warning - unable to delete old directory `/usr/X11R6/lib/X11': Directory 
not empty
dpkg: warning - unable to delete old directory `/usr/X11R6/lib': Directory not 
empty

That message should mention what one should do to properly remedy the
solution, and if it is the user's fault or not.
Also have a README file in /usr/share/doc/xfonts-encodings/ perhaps.

It can't, because that message is generated by dpkg.  It has no
consequence, so while the leftover files in this case are probably a
bug, it's not one that has any consequence AFAIK.

No.

Something should clean up those files, but I'm not sure what.
You can just rm -r /usr/X11R6/lib.

Cheers,
Julien
