Package: libccnet0
Version: 6.0.2-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

libccnet0 is marked as Multi-Arch: same but its postinst and preinst scripts
call pycompile and pyclean without specifying the package architecture. As a
result if libccnet0 is installed for more than one architecture the package 
name is ambiguous, causing the postinst and prerm scripts fail.

This then prevents any package from being installed or removed, thus breaking
the system permanently.


The solution is to replace the following line in 
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libccnet0:*.postinst

        pycompile -p libccnet0
with
        pycompile -p libccnet0:$DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_ARCH 

And the following line in /var/lib/dpkg/info/libccnet0:*.prerm

        pyclean -p libccnet0 
with
        pyclean -p libccnet0:$DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_ARCH 


See also bug #770625 which shows how this same bug was fixed in gir1.2-ibus-1.0.
