Hi, I need to make a design change to the docbook-xsl* packages. ATM the situation is, that the HTML documentation from docbook-xsl-doc-html was installed into /usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl/doc and there was a link in /usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/. Now I need to change this and everything gets installed into /usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/doc/ and a link /usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl/reference.html is created. So /usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl/doc should disappear. But when I try the update I receive this:
Preparing to replace docbook-xsl-doc-html 1.73.2.dfsg.1-5 (using docbook-xsl-doc-html_1.74.2-1_all.deb) ... Unpacking replacement docbook-xsl-doc-html ... dpkg: warning - unable to delete old directory `/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl/doc/slides': Directory not empty dpkg: warning - unable to delete old directory `/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl/doc/lib': Directory not empty dpkg: warning - unable to delete old directory `/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl/doc/utility': Directory not empty [..] and everything in /usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl/doc/ is left. I (always) thought, the upgrade process includes to remove the old package (its directories and files)? Isn't it? So why does this fail? I tried to find some more information about the upgrade process, but I just found a few notes in dpkg(1) and of course section 6 of the policy.
