[Pkg-raspi-maintainers] Bug#1035783: raspi-firmware: unowned files after purge (policy 6.8, 10.8): /boot/firmware/fixup*.dat, /boot/firmware/start*.elf, /boot/firmware/bootcode.bin

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: raspi-firmware
Version: 1.20220830+ds-1
Severity: important
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

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 (or 10.8):

https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#details-of-removal-and-or-configuration-purging

Filing this as important as having a piuparts clean archive is a release
goal since lenny.

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

You should probably ship /boot/firmware/ as an empty directory, too.


cheers,

Andreas
