Hi Mattia, The bug here is that the transitional dummy package purges the directory that the main package which provides it uses. Both certbot and letsencrypt use `/var/log/letsencrypt` for their log storage, but the letsencrypt package has been hollowed out and made into a dummy. The directory will still be deleted if you purge certbot, which is the new and correct owner of that path. Sincerely, -- Harlan Lieberman-Berg ~hlieberman
