[DRE-maint] Bug#858521: diaspora-common: does 'rm -rf /' on purge

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: diaspora-common
Version: 0.6.3.0+debian3
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package makes havoc in the
chroot.

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

1m47.3s DEBUG: Starting command: ['chroot', '/tmp/piupartss/tmpOwZDY2', 'dpkg', '--purge', 'diaspora-common']
1m48.1s DUMP:

  dpkg: error processing package diaspora-common (--purge):

1m48.1s ERROR: Command failed (status=127): ['chroot', '/tmp/piupartss/tmpOwZDY2', 'tmp/scripts/post_purge_exceptions']


This very much looks like an 'rm -rf /' in the chroot ... rm is gone, sh is gone, ...


cheers,

Andreas
