[Piuparts-devel] Bug#588313: piuparts: needs to detect changes in diversions

[Scott Schaefer]

Attached is patch that implements what you are doing with scripts 
"internally".

It defines a new option --no-diversions, which defaults to False; i.e. 
DO check for differences between dpkg-divert --list executions after 
chroot setup and after package purge.  Any differences are logged with 
one/both of:

Error: Installed diversions (dpkg-divert) not removed by purge:
     line(s) from post setup ...

Error: Existing diversions (dpkg-divert) removed/modified:
     line(s) from post purge ...

Same warnings re other patch I submitted apply ... my (lack of) Python 
skills and relative ignorance re piuparts codebase, plus limited 
regression testing make this subject to extra review.
