Bug#616577: Upgrading libpango1.0-0 fails: rm: cannot remove `/usr/share/doc/libpango1.0-0': Is a directory

[Alexander Kurtz]

I investigated this further after realizing that on my other machine
`/usr/share/doc/libpango1.0-0' is a symlink to `libpango1.0-common'.

I first tried to re-install the old versions:

	$ sudo dpkg -i libpango1.0-0_1.28.3-1+squeeze2_i386.deb libpango1.0-common_1.28.3-1+squeeze2_all.deb 
	[...]
	$ file /usr/share/doc/libpango*
	/usr/share/doc/libpango-perl:      directory
	/usr/share/doc/libpango1.0-0:      directory
	/usr/share/doc/libpango1.0-common: directory
	/usr/share/doc/libpangomm-1.4-1:   directory
	$

I then removed the directory and re-installed:
