Hi again Bas,

While the package has been hanging around in the NEW queue, I've had quite a 
bit of time to test the package. One thing I've learnt, is that "Maintainer 
scripts" are not really straight forward... I've found a few issues while doing 
quite extensive testing of the different upgrade paths from the previous 
version of openstreetmap-carto.

Another thing is that apparently directories cannot be replaced by symbolic 
links during package upgrade unless some extra tweaking is added to the 
postinst script.

I've prepared a new package with all these things fixed. It is an advantage if 
it is uploaded before the package completes its NEW journey, but no crisis if 
not (considering the popcon data for openstreetmap-carto which indicates that 
it's still fairly unpopular).

I'm sorry to waste your time, but if you have some available time to upload 
this package, it would be appreciated.

The repo is of course found here:
 git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-grass/openstreetmap-carto.git

Best regards,
Ruben
