[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#793601: virt-manager: purging virt-manager deletes files owned by virtinst: /usr/share/virt-manager/**/*.py

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: virt-manager
Version: 1:1.0.1-5
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package removes files that
were installed by another package.
The removed files were already present before the package was installed,
they may have been shipped or created by a dependency.

This is probably caused by an incorrect maintainer script.
