With piuparts we want to test that * the package does not fail to purge if (Pre-)Depends are gone * the package should not leave anything around after purge (and on a case by case basis we may decide what is allowed to remain) (leftover files are considered a warning except for the sid tests) * the package cleans up properly during purge if the (Pre-)Depends are available (that's why I'll add these fake-essential packages as ucf and dbconfig-common are commonly needed for cleanup during purge) For proper cleanup even without dbconfig-common or ucf, there should probably be a debhelper command that generates the postinst code ...
