Package: newsclipper

Severity: normal
WTF? Why would a package be attempting to remove anything under the
sacrosanct /usr/local?
Preparing to replace newsclipper 1.17-3 (using .../newsclipper_1.28-1_all.deb) ...
rmdir: `/usr/local/lib/newsclipper': Directory not empty
Unpacking replacement newsclipper ...
keyboard: Timeout - AT keyboard not present?
Setting up newsclipper (1.28-1) ...
Installing new version of config file /etc/NewsClipper.cfg ...
Whatever it did, there's only a directory tree there now, so the damage
appears to have been done.
