[Python-modules-team] Bug#566588: unowned files after purge (policy 6.8)

[Holger Levsen]

Package: python-application
Version: 1.2.1-1
Severity: important
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts piuparts.d.o

Hi, 

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package left unowned files on the 
system after purge, which is a violation of policy 6.8:

http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#s-removedetails

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

1m3.0s ERROR: FAIL: Package purging left files on system:
  /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/twisted	 owned by: python-twisted-bin
  /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/twisted/plugins	 not owned

Purging of python-twisted-bin alone is no problem. Bert Zeimetz asked me to 
file this bug, so he can deal with it. (Leaving files after purge is not a 
super big problem of course, though it is a violation of policy, but it also 
prevents piuparts tests of packages which depend on the failing ones, thus 
possibly preventing the detection of more serious issues.)


regards,
	Holger
