If you want to help, please find an appropriate package and reassign. We had these bug reports before. As mentioned in the report, I had the same issue with postgres, and the fix was implented within a day, so I'm guessing it was rather trivial. Postgresql: Bug#866729 You are absolutly right that this is a result from a user desision, but mind you, when doing containers, it is often preferred to have them nice and lean, dropping man pages and documentation (while keeping the licenses of course) is very commonly done to minimize the container. From the log below, which is is what brought me to this package name, I can't seem to figure out what other package would be the root cause? Do you have any suggestions where it should go? Reassigning and leaving the rest of the message as a context for the maintainer. When setting up java-8-openjdk on a minimal debian (where I would have rm -rf-ed /usr/share/man) the following snipped shows the failure error. I have had a similar error with postgres which was fixed in Bug#866729 update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/rmid to provide /usr/bin/rmid (rmid) in auto mode update-alternatives: error: error creating symbolic link '/usr/share/man/man1/rmid.1.gz.dpkg-tmp': No such file or directory dpkg: error processing package openjdk-8-jre-headless:amd64 (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of openjdk-8-jdk-headless:amd64: openjdk-8-jdk-headless:amd64 depends on openjdk-8-jre-headless (= 8u141-b15-1~deb9u1); however: Package openjdk-8-jre-headless:amd64 is not configured yet.
