Bug#863246: hplip-data: removing hplip-data does not clean up some of its directories
Package: hplip-data
Version: 3.16.11+repack0-3
Severity: minor
When I removed hplip-data, I got:
Removing hplip-data (3.16.11+repack0-3) ...
dpkg: warning: while removing hplip-data, directory '/usr/share/hplip/ui5' not empty so not removed
dpkg: warning: while removing hplip-data, directory '/usr/share/hplip/scan' not empty so not removed

dpkg: warning: while removing hplip-data, directory '/usr/share/hplip/copier' not empty so not removed
dpkg: warning: while removing hplip-data, directory '/usr/share/hplip/base/pexpect' not empty so not removed
But for instance, /usr/share/hplip/ui5 contains only an empty
directory __pycache__ that doesn't belong to any package and
should have been removed in the process.
