[Pkg-ia32-libs-maintainers] Bug#602810: ia32-libs fails in postinst due to wrong version conditioning prior to dpkg-divert

Hi Julien,

Short answer: if the 3rd party package is perfectly fine, that's no
justification, ia32-libs postinstall script still is broken.


Long answer: It may very well be disputable if my bug report is to be
classified serious or not, however for a different reason, namely if
said wrong conditioning of the cleanup code constitutes a violation of
the suggested MO of dpkg-divert in the Debian Policy. And frankly I
don't mind about the seriousness, I just hope it gets fixed :)

So aside from that, serious or not: will the report receive ack status?

Thanks,
Daniel
