Followup-For: Bug #744165 Control: tag -1 patch Hi Clint,
I thought my recent changes would have properly fixed this bug as well, but now I realized that fakeroot.postrm tried to clean up something that the libfakeroot package is responsible for ... So I'd suggest to just ship the SONAME symlink that would be created by ldconfig anyway - no need for manual cleanup in maintainer scripts. (That's also what the policy says about SONAME symlinks.) Due to use of ld.so.conf.d ldconfig is unsuitable for doing the removal itself since at the time when the ldconfig trigger actually runs, the config snippet may have gone away already. Since that symlink is not used at all by fakeroot, it does not really matter to which of teh two variants it points. A single commit can be found in git://git.debian.org/git/users/anbe/tmp/fakeroot.git Andreas
