Thanks! With those it’s better, I get the following when testing kanla
1.4-1:

1m19.2s ERROR: FAIL: Package purging left files on system:
  /var/lib/systemd/deb-systemd-helper-masked/	 not owned

This is a valid message and an oversight, I addressed it with
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/init-system-helpers.git;a=commitdiff;h=7b937dbf841da108e81eb79278812eb5f89cff43
(A new version of i-s-h was just uploaded to unstable.)

The output for me is now:
piuparts --do-not-verify-signatures --pbuilder \
  --scriptsdir /etc/piuparts/scripts \
  --scriptsdir /etc/piuparts/scripts-leftovers
  --bindmount=/tmp/up \
  --extra-repo='deb file:///tmp/up ./' \
  kanla_1.4-1_amd64.changes
…
1m3.5s INFO: PASS: All tests.

Now, I still have a question, though: In
https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/fail/kanla_1.4-1.log there are the
following messages:

0m43.4s ERROR: FAIL: Package purging left files on system:
  /etc/systemd/	 not owned
  /etc/systemd/system/	 not owned
  /var/lib/systemd/deb-systemd-helper-masked/	 not owned

Why does the version running at piuparts.debian.org still show these
other directories? Is this a mistake in the setup, or am I missing
something?

Other users repeatedly come up with questions about this, too, see
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-systemd-maintainers/2013-November/000706.html
for the latest example. So I’d be happy if we could finally fix this :).

Thanks.
