[Bug report and question] gcc-mingw package.


The bug:

In the preremove script, the sense of a test is wrong:
[ -f /etc/preremove/gcc-mingw-manifest.lst ] && exit 0

But the && should be a ||. Because of this, gcc-mingw doesn't remove itself
when uninstalled.

The question:

Why is gcc-mingw so weirdly packaged?
(the package tar contains another tar which is unpacked by a postinstall
script).

Max.
