Package: mailman
Severity: minor

Upon purge saw
dpkg - warning: while removing mailman, directory ... not empty so not removed.
for
/usr/lib/mailman/pythonlib/email
/usr/lib/mailman/pythonlib
/usr/lib/mailman/bin
/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Gui
/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue
/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Handlers
/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Archiver
/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Logging
/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman
/usr/lib/mailman
/var/lib/mailman/qfiles
/var/lib/mailman/lists
/var/lib/mailman/archives/private
/var/lib/mailman/archives
/var/lib/mailman

Some of these seem justified to protect one's data, but not all.
Perhaps print a message upon purge about what is intentional or not.
Not sure what piuparts would say.
