Bug#854141: tzdata: purging tzdata leaves dangling /etc/localtime symlink



Package: tzdata
Version: 2016j-2
Severity: important
User: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package left unowned files on
the system after purge, which is a violation of policy 6.8 (or 10.8):

https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#s-removedetails

Filing this as important as having a piuparts clean archive is a release
goal since lenny.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

0m36.2s ERROR: FAIL: Package purging left files on system:
  /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/UTC	 not owned


(tested with a even more minimal chroot that does not have
tzdata installed)


cheers,

Andreas
