Steve Langasek [2011-09-30 5:37 -]: So glib2.0 needs to clean up its historic mis-migration. Hmm, the preinst files do if [ $1 = upgrade ] dpkg --compare-versions $2 lt-nl 2.27.5-2; then rm -f /usr/share/doc/libglib2.0-dev fi I. e. correctly use lt-nl (thus don't fire on fresh installs), and also shouldn't affect natty upgrades, and don't create any symlinks. Given that this was reproduced using a natty install and oneiric upgrade, I don't see how this would introduce this bug. But maybe I'm missing something here? debian/* doesn't use ln anywhere, and there is just one *.links for gtk-doc. The natty package is identical in all those regards.

[Bug 854622] Re: Could not install libglib2.0
I downloaded the i386 and amd64 binaries from that version from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/2.29.92-0ubuntu1/+build/2793297 and https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/2.29.92-0ubuntu1/+build/2793299. They both have an identical changelog.Debian.gz, so I'm not sure where the changelog.Debian.gz with the 'apt-get changelog libglib2.0-data' came from in this particular instance. Also, both these two debs and libglib2.0-data's changelog.Debian.gz are proper files, not symlinks. In theory, such a situation could arise like this: (1) The i386 build builds -0 and -data, both get identical changelog.Debian.gz, and the one from libglib2.0-0 gets symlinked to libglib2.0-data. (2) After that, libglib2.0-data's changelog gets truncated, and a pointer added to apt-get changelog. (3) The amd64 build doesn't build the arch:all libglib2.0-data, and thus libglib2.0-0:amd64's changelog.Debian.gz won't be a symlink. During truncation it would point to apt-get changelog libglib2.0-0. However, that can't be the case: pkgbinarymangler does not do symlinks from arch:any to arch:all for this very reason, rendering (1) impossible. Also, changelog stripping happens _first_, and symlinking afterwards, so the symlinking takes care only to symlink identical files, rendering (2) impossible. Thirdly, the packages built by launchpad all have changelog.Debian.gz as proper files, rendering (3) impossible. In such a situation, could you please give me the output of ls -l /usr/share/doc/*glib2.0*/changelog.Debian.gz dpkg -S /usr/share/doc/*glib2.0*/changelog.Debian.gz to see which changelog.Debian.gz gets claimed by which package, and which are symlinks?
