Hi Tong, Replying since I am CC'ed, look below :- On 12/11/21 10:20 PM, Tong Sun wrote:
Thanks, one more thing, The dbab can upgrade from oldstable (Buster) just fine, but I'm trying to remove the conffile files no longer exist since then (dbab_1.3.2-2), | If the conffile has not been shipped for several versions, and you are now modifying the maintainer scripts to clean up the obsolete file, prior-version should be based on the version of the package that you are now preparing, not the first version of the package that lacked the conffile. So I did this: $ cat debian/dbab.maintscript rm_conffile /etc/dnsmasq.d/dbab.adblock.conf 1.5.7-2~ rm_conffile /etc/dnsmasq.d/dbab.trashsites.conf 1.5.7-2~ rm_conffile /etc/dbab/dbab.proxy 1.5.7-2~ However, when I installed my 1.5.7-2 built such a way, I found the above files are still there.
For me, the /etc/dbab/dbab.proxy *did* get removed, and the rest two are still present.
Logs pasted at the end of this email.
This is kinda expected I think.
The reason is because "/etc/dbab/dbab.proxy" is present with the package installation in buster, and
the rest two files are created during the postinst script. As far as I read the code, please see here[1] rm_conffile
will work only when the config file belongs to the package, which is not "established" in this case.
In buster version,
$ dpkg -S /etc/dnsmasq.d/dbab.*
dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /etc/dnsmasq.d/dbab.adblock.conf
dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /etc/dnsmasq.d/dbab.trashsites.conf
$ dpkg -S /etc/dbab/dbab.proxy
dbab: /etc/dbab/dbab.proxy
So I think you will have to manually take care of these two in postinst, I am not sure
if there is a better way.
