Re: Bug#659026: lm-sensors: own sensors file removed while upgrading ( /etc/sensors.d )
reassign 659026 dpkg
retitle 659026 dpkg removes non-dpkg handled files during upgrade
tag 659026 - moreinfo
thanks
Hi dpkg folks,
Here is a bug report concerning a file non handled by dpkg, in a
directory installed by a package (namely /etc/sensors.d/) that has been
lost during an upgrade. Given there is a .placeholder file in this
directory and that nothing in the maintainer scripts remove files, it
might be a dpkg issue. Therefore I am reassigning the bug there.
