"However as far as I see, the actual issue in #459424 is very different: package bar (in this context: libsane-extras) is buggy whether it is in installed state or removed state. Package foo (in this context: libsane) is not required to work around bar breakage as long as bar is not part of a stable release. If foo insists to do it, then I think the best option is to do it in the preinst script." I'm not reopening, to let you decide how to handle the bug.
