Package: base-files
Version: 5
/usr/share/doc/base-files/README.base says that one of the things
that must be done to remove the old 'base' package is:
# 4. Remove all the files matching "/var/lib/dpkg/info/base.*".
However, the provided shell script /usr/share/doc/base-files/remove-base
does this:
rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/base.*
The effect is that it silently doesn't remove the files it ought to,
and base-files' postinst will continue to nag about the existence
of the base package.
I only noticed this when I recently upgraded to lenny and got
nagged at when I knew I'd dealt with 'base' last upgrade cycle...
