Maintainer script informative call graph
Hi,
Inspired by Marga's excellent document claryfying the maintainer
scripts at http://women.debian.org/wiki/English/MaintainerScripts, and
also enthused about Emacs org-mode's ability to create a simple plain
ascii input file and leveragte things like graphviz and ditaa, I have
some up with a slightly different take on clarification of the
maintainer script call sequence.
Please have a look-see at:
http://people.debian.org/~srivasta/MaintainerScripts.html
I'm attaching the source below. I think I am going to continue
to enhance it, but I ran out of steam tonight. I am proposing adding
this to the policy package, once it gets polished a bit more, and
checked for correctness.

* Introduction
This document is meant to clarify the interaction between maintainer
scripts and the state changes for a package when a user interacts with
the packaging system. This was inspired by Margarita Manterola's
[[http://women.debian.org/wiki/English/MaintainerScripts][excellent treatise]] on the subject, but has a slightly different slant:
this document is more concerned about user actions, and the resulting
state transitions of a package's state on a Debian installation,
rather than a maintainer script centric treatment of the process.
* Common Use Cases
To start with, we consider the most common use cases related to a
user's interaction with the packaging system:
- *Install*: Starting with a package which is not installed on the
system, the user asks the packaging system to install a package. If
all goes well, the end result is that the package is installed on
the system.
- *Remove*: Starting with a package that is currently installed on the
system, the user asks the packaging system to remove it. If all goes
well, only configuration files shall remain on the system at the
end.
- *Purge*: Starting with the state when only configuration files
remain on the system, the user asks the package system to remove
even the configuration files. If all goes well, the package will be
fully un-installed.
- Starting with a package installed on the system, the user asks the
system to fully uninstall the package. This is not an independent
use case, it is just the /Remove/ followed by a /Purge/, and we do
not consider it separately below.
- *Reinstall*: Starting with just the configuration files remaining on
the system, the user asks the packaging system to install the
package again (potentially newer version of the package).
- *Upgrade*: Starting with a version of the package installed on the
system, the user asks the packaging system to install a newer
version of the package. (A variation is the case where the old and
the new version of the package are the same, but it follows the same
process).
This is not as complex a scenario as one might be afraid of; there are
only three states a package may be in when the user initiates the
action (/Not Installed/, /Configuration files only/, and
/Installed/). These states are also successful terminal state, and
there are only three failure terminal states (/Half Installed/,
/Failed config/, and /Unpacked/).
In the treatment below, we do not discuss details of failure modes, we
just detail what happens when a maintainer script encounters an
error. Also, we do not go into early sanity checks, for example,
complications like the absence of a dependency when trying to
(re)install a package, or the presence of a conflicting package. We
also do not deal with the cases where the package we are trying to
remove has other installed packages that depend on it; in all these
cases the result is to abort the operation early, and let the user
handle further action.
** Install a previously unknown package
This is the case where a package is not currently installed on the
system, and the user asks the packaging system to install version
/V1/.

*** Activity diagram
The green ellipses are the start states a package may be in, the Blue
labels represent user actions. The maintainer scripts are represented
by decision boxes, since usually how the process flows depends on
whether the maintainer scripts succeeds or fails. Terminal states are
/octagons/. The colors /green/ and /red/ denote success and failure,
respectively.

This is the reverse operation from above: starting with an installed
package, remove the package, and then purge the configuration files.

* Conclusion
In conclusion, here is the full activity diagram encompassing the
above use cases. While this is certainly complex, it is still fairly
easy to see how the use cases flow from the initial states (the green
ellipses), through the decision points (the blue diamonds of the
maintainer script execution), to the octagonal terminal states.
