Dear Maintainer,
it would be useful if Debian-specific programs called from a maintainer

Hi,
dpkg-deb -x package.deb happily overwrites symlinks on the filesystems
with directories. I don't know whether this is desired behavior.

For some reason, a system of mine ended up without

Hi,
I recently encountered "no space left on device" errors at the end of a

It would have been vastly easier to debug this
This should be fixed with dpkg 1.18.17. Please verify.

Hi,
I am not sure about this bug's severity, it prevents software from
being installed. There is at least one report against another package,
#848413.

Hi,
this is a followup to the discussion I had with Guillem in some bug
reports in early 2016 and in private mail, the latter unfortunately
never answered.
I think that the path-include option is handling symlinks differently
from normal files, whic
--path-exclude=/foo/bar --path-exclude='/foo/bar/*', and to make sure
that the glob does not get processed by the shell by using appropriate
quoting".

I am trying to checkout the --path-exclude option of dpkg in a test
chroot by first removing /usr/share/zoneinfo and then trying to
install the tzdata package. I have found the following issues:

There should be a possibility to get ahold of the exit code given by
the binary invoked by start-stop-daemon.
To not change given behavior, this should be enabled with a new option.
