Package: dpkg Severity: wishlist Hello
This feature request cover update-alternatives- In but 270684 I have a problem with that the program vncpasswd is considered manually managed. I do not really know in what situations this occur but this can also be an action from the user. (I do not think it is in this specific bug though). * The problem is that if an user decide to manually change an alternative, for example vncpasswd. * If this package is removed or purged the alternative symlink is still there (but dangling). * If the user then install a new package that provide the same program the symlink will still be dangling as it is pointing to the old program and considered manual. What I would like is that if the symlink is a dangling symlink it should be alwys be considered to be automatically managed. What do you think about this? Would this be a good feature?
