Hi!

I have been analyzing packages for the piuparts test, and have
observed that ~900 packages fail the piuparts because apt doesn't
purge the /var/log/apt/term.log file.

The gzipped log of the piuparts run for adacgi (just as an example) is
attached. The problem is that the process

Install Stable adacgi -> upgrade to sid -> purge

lets /var/log/apt/term.log remain unremoved. However, it should be
removed, I guess.

Please consider fixing this bug, as it is a Lenny release
recommendation. [1]. I have attached a patch which attempst to do
this.

Thanks.

Kumar

Hi!

Sinc piuparts doesn't actually remove apt, this bug isn't the problem
of APT and has to be tackled otherwise.

Sorry for the incorrect report.
