    dpkg: Keep parent directories of directories kept during removal
    
    When a directory is kept during removal to be later dealt with during
    purge, due to the directory containing conffiles from the same package,
    it not being empty, etc, we should keep all its parent to make sure
    when the subsequent trial is performed they are properly cleaned up.
    
    Closes: #454694

   * On purge correctly remove symlinks acting as directories, when they are
     not being used by any other package's files.
+  * Do not lose track of parent directories on removal so that they can
+    be properly cleaned up on purge if not used by any other package.
