hey all,
i recently saw that apache2.2-common's prerm script has the following
block of text:
= = = = =
# YAY, MORE EVILNESS
rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/info/apache2-common.postrm
= = = = =
and the following from the changelog:
= = = = =
apache2 (2.2.3-2) unstable; urgency=low
<snip>
* rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/info/apache2-common.postrm. So apache2-common
can
be purged. Yes, we're on crack. Closes: #390823
= = = = =
is this even remotely acceptable? i had the impressions that packages
must not assume the inner workings of dpkg. but, i can't back this up
with anything in policy from what i can tell, hence the posting of
this question.
