hello I tested one of my package (spyder) with piuparts. The "install upgrade and purge" test failed with remaing files
13m27.1s INFO: Warning: Package purging left files on system: /usr/share/pyshared/spyderlib owned by: python-spyderlib /usr/share/pyshared/spyderlib/doc not owned 13m27.1s INFO: PASS: Installation, upgrade and purging tests. doing the install test by hand, it seems that installing and purging the old is ok (no remaining files) installing and purging the new package is ok (no remaining files) The problem triggered only during the upgrade Investigating a little more on this I played with the dpkg --debug level and I got this D000010: process_archive: checking //usr/share/pyshared/spyderlib/doc/_sources/editor.txt for same files on upgrade/downgrade D000010: process_archive: not removing //usr/share/pyshared/spyderlib/doc/_sources/editor.txt, since it matches /usr/share/doc/python-spyderlib/html/_sources/editor.txt and at the end dpkg : avertissement : impossible de supprimer l'ancien répertoire « /usr/share/pyshared/spyderlib/doc/_sources » : Le dossier n'est pas vide sorry for the french it mean sorry I can not remove the directory it is not empty indeed dpkg decided not to remove identical files during an upgrade Is it normal ? thanks Frederic -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
