Bug#582489: libscotchmetis-dev: does not clean up after package removal

[Gerber van der Graaf]

Package: libscotchmetis-dev
Severity: normal

I think the package does not remove the following files after
apt-get remove libscotchmetis-dev:
/usr/lib/libscotchmetis-5.1.so
/usr/lib/libmetis.so.3.1

Similar issues I found with libscotchparmetis-dev:
/usr/lib/libparmetis.so.3.1

This is quite confusing whether it cannot be distinguished if the lib(par)metis 
files origin from the scotch(par)metis-dev packages or from the non-free 
(par)metis packages.
