Package: drupal7
Version: 7.14-1~bpo60+1

README.Debian suggests the following symlinks:

 # ln -s /usr/local/share/drupal/modules /usr/share/drupal7/modules/local
 # ln -s /usr/local/share/drupal/themes /usr/share/drupal7/themes/local




I notice that drupal6 automatically creates links to such locations and
people may already have drupal6 modules in those locations.

Perhaps the links should be (notice the extra 7)


 # ln -s /usr/local/share/drupal/7/modules /usr/share/drupal7/modules/local
 # ln -s /usr/local/share/drupal/7/themes /usr/share/drupal7/themes/local


with a comment recommending that people also move drupal6 stuff out of
the way (not mandatory, but maybe more tidy):

mkdir -p \
   /usr/local/share/drupal/6 \
   /usr/local/share/drupal/7/modules \
   /usr/local/share/drupal/7/themes

cd /usr/local/share/drupal
mv modules themes 6/

rm \
  /usr/share/drupal6/modules/local \
  /usr/share/drupal6/themes/local

ln -s /usr/local/share/drupal/6/modules /usr/share/drupal6/modules/local
ln -s /usr/local/share/drupal/6/themes /usr/share/drupal6/themes/local


I also found a /usr/local/share/drupal/sites directory, not sure if it
was created by me or by one of the modules I installed, but I think this
should also be under /usr/local/share/drupal/6/sites now

Even better, could the squeeze version of the package be updated to make
such changes, and the wheezy version would conflict with versions of the
drupal6 package that don't use /usr/local/share/drupal/6 ?

This appears to be the only obvious drupal6/drupal7 co-installation issue
