After a release it should be safe now to remove. --- debian/dpkg.postinst | 47 ----------------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 47 deletions(-) diff --git a/debian/dpkg.postinst b/debian/dpkg.postinst index ac2ad079a..867a9e692 100644 --- a/debian/dpkg.postinst +++ b/debian/dpkg.postinst @@ -51,55 +51,8 @@ check_merged_usr_via_aliased_dirs() done } -# Version 1.21.0 had bogus handling of DPKG_ADMINDIR in update-alternatives, -# and misplaced them, fix them up. -fixup_misplaced_alternatives() -( - admindir=${DPKG_ADMINDIR:-/var/lib/dpkg} - - cd "$admindir" - - for file in *; do - if !
