Ah, that part of the changelog was written while we still were trying to ship both spacefun and joy, but it turned out to be an even uglier diff and seemed better to just remove spacefun. > Was the addition of a --remove call in postrm (as suggested in > #679208) considered? I think what really triggered that bug was the 12.06.1 version shipped both spacefun and joy, but only removed spacefun. I did consider the additional postrm call suggested, but it generated lintian warnings; it seems like there is not real consensus on how to handle "update-alternatives --remove" so I followed the path that seemed to actually fix the bug that didn't produce lintian warnings and complies with policy as it currently stands.
