[Jörg-Volker Peetz]

Hi Soren,

thanks for taking care of this.

(I'm adding this report also to the Debian bug tracking system.)

In sid I tried the following:

- down-grade ruby-nokogiri to version 1.18.2+dfsg-1 from 1.18.2+dfsg-1+b1
     dpkg -i ruby-nokogiri_1.18.2+dfsg-1_amd64.deb
- remove all redmine references from /var/lib/dpkg/triggers/File
- upgrade redmine to 6.0.4+ds-2
   as to be expected, this adds 4 lines to /var/lib/dpkg/triggers/File :
     /usr/share/redmine/plugins redmine/noawait
     /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby redmine/noawait
     /usr/share/rubygems-integration redmine/noawait
     /usr/lib/*/rubygems-integration redmine/noawait
- upgrade ruby-nokogiri to 1.18.2+dfsg-1+b1
     apt -t sid install '~U~nby-nokogiri'

This did not trigger the reconfiguration of redmine.

Then I tried this:

- down-grade ruby-nokogiri to version 1.18.2+dfsg-1 again
- adding the following line at the end of var/lib/dpkg/triggers/File :
     /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/rubygems-integration redmine/noawait
- upgrade ruby-nokogiri to 1.18.2+dfsg-1+b1

This now triggered the reconfiguration of redmine.

Therefore, I think the wildcard '*' isn't working in trigger files.

Maybe, there is a method to determine the architecture during installation?
And let the trigger file redmine.trigger be adapted by the preinst script?

Alternatively, just include a trigger line for every supported architecture?

Best regards,
Jörg.
