python,orig file is not removed from ${VIRTUALENV}/bin/
lez opened this issue · comments
When the system interpreter differs from the one in the deb package, the postinst script (added by dh_virtualenv) overwrites the virtualenv interpreter to the system version. The original interpreter is kept under the name python,orig.
I'm not sure if this file is supposed to stay there as a backup and removed by the package's prerm script, or it can already be removed already in postinst script. Either in postinst or prerm, I'm happy to write the patch that removes this file automatically.
prerm would be the proper place. A PR would be great.
