Please unblock package trousers This version fixes an annoying bug which prevents upgrades or removal from previous versions, including stable (and thus makes upgrades fail, without any proper way to upgrade or remove the old version). See #67682 and #679621 The fix is a workaround: since the init script cannot be used, we kill and remove the executable in the prerm script so the init script can exit properly, and continue the upgrade process with the new version. debdiff attached Thanks, Pierre unblock trousers/0.3.9-2
