Oh, damn, this'll be horrible to fix. The logrotate file was moved from the syslog-ng package to syslog-ng-core, and the postinst/preinst magic that was supposed to disable rotation if the package is removed (but not purged) bit me. Personally, I'd lower the severity to important, since the package CAN be installed again in wheezy if it was removed in squeeze, if one answers the prompt. Nevertheless, I'll leave it at serious for now, and try to figure out how to fix the situation properly. Thanks for the report! By the way, may I ask what version of piuparts you used? Mine (on sid) does not seem to know the --install-remove-install option, which is needed to trigger this bug. (I've been testing the package with piuparts and manually too - to make sure upgrades work after the split. I never thought of the install+remove in squeeze followed by a reinstall in wheezy scenario...) -- |8] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
