Bug#677146: python-uno uses file from libreoffice-core in preinst without declaring PreDepends
Package: python-uno
Version: 1:3.5.3-5
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 7.2
during an upgrade, the python-uno preinst script calls:
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/unopkg
This file seems to come from the libreoffice-core pacakge. According
to the policy:
"Pre-Depends are also required if the preinst script depends on
the named package"
I found this when helping someone that was having trouble upgrading
from squeeze to wheezy and was getting a preinst failure due to this
file being missing.
