Looking into x11-common.preinst it looks like this is the fragment that
causes the trouble:
# We need to remove /usr/X11R6/bin so we can replace it with a symlink
if [ -d "/usr/X11R6/bin" ] && [ ! -L /usr/X11R6/bin ]; then
if ! rmdir "/usr/X11R6/bin"; then
run db_fset x11-common/x11r6_bin_not_empty seen false
run db_input critical x11-common/x11r6_bin_not_empty
run db_go
exit 1
fi
fi
I don't think it should fail but issue a message and move the old dir
aside to prevent upgrades from failing.
Cheers,
Michael
