[Debian GNUstep maintainers] Bug#663388: gnustep-back-common: unowned files after purge (policy 6.8, 10.8) violating FHS (policy 9.1) too

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: gnustep-back-common
Version: 0.20.1-2
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package left unowned files on
the system after purge, which is a violation of policy 6.8 (or 10.8):

http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#s-removedetails

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

0m32.0s ERROR: FAIL: Package purging left files on system:
  /root/GNUstep	 not owned
  /root/GNUstep/Library	 not owned
  /var/lib/GNUstep	 not owned
  /var/lib/GNUstep/Fonts	 not owned
  /var/log/gnustep-back-common.log	 not owned


As putting files into /root is also a violation of
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#s9.1.2
I'm setting the severity to serious.


cheers,

Andreas
