Hi, a test with piuparts revealed that your package misses the copyright file after an upgrade, which is a violation of Policy 12.5: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#copyright-information After the upgrade /usr/share/doc/$PACKAGE/ is just an empty directory. This was observed on the following upgrade paths: bullseye -> bookworm >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): 0m42.0s ERROR: WARN: Inadequate results from running adequate! sse4.2-support: missing-copyright-file /usr/share/doc/sse4.2-support/copyright MISSING COPYRIGHT FILE: /usr/share/doc/sse4.2-support/copyright # ls -lad /usr/share/doc/sse4.2-support drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 May 3 12:07 /usr/share/doc/sse4.2-support # ls -la /usr/share/doc/sse4.2-support/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 May 3 12:07 . drwxr-xr-x 113 root root 2300 May 3 12:07 .. 0m39.1s ERROR: WARN: Inadequate results from running adequate! sse3-support: missing-copyright-file /usr/share/doc/sse3-support/copyright MISSING COPYRIGHT FILE: /usr/share/doc/sse3-support/copyright # ls -lad /usr/share/doc/sse3-support drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 May 3 13:55 /usr/share/doc/sse3-support # ls -la /usr/share/doc/sse3-support/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 May 3 13:55 . drwxr-xr-x 113 root root 2300 May 3 13:55 .. Additional info may be available here: https://wiki.debian.org/MissingCopyrightFile Note that dpkg intentionally does not replace directories with symlinks and vice versa, you need the maintainer scripts to do this. See in particular the end of point 4 in https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#details-of-unpack-phase-of-installation-or-upgrade It is recommended to use the dpkg-maintscript-helper commands 'dir_to_symlink' and 'symlink_to_dir' (available since dpkg 1.17.14) to perform the conversion, ideally using d/$PACKAGE.maintscript. See dpkg-maintscript-helper(1) and dh_installdeb(1) for details. cheers, Andreas
