debian package doesn't purge cleanly #1802

Open calestyo opened 9 years ago

Hey.

dCache creates some files in /etc/dcache, e.g.: /etc/dcache/ └── admin ├── host_key ├── host_key.pub ├── server_key ├── server_key.pub ├── ssh_host_dsa_key └── ssh_host_dsa_key.pub

These are neither conffiles of the package nor clean up in the maintainer scripts, and thus one get's errors and leftovers on package purge: Removing dcache (2.13.4-1) ... Purging configuration files for dcache (2.13.4-1) ... dpkg: warning: while removing dcache, directory '/etc/dcache/admin' not empty so not removed

Cheers, Chris.

Another case at least seem to be any files that may be created in: /var/lib/dcache/zookeeper by the embedded zookeeper.

And likely also things like poolmanager.conf and their respective backup files.
