Title:
  package javascript-common 8 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess
  installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Status in javascript-common package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in javascript-common package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: javascript-common

  Failed to upgrade the javascript-common8 package.
  This error has been encountered while upgrading ubuntu distribution 11.04.

  This is the faulty bit in the postinst:

  if [ ! -e /etc/lighttpd/conf-available/90-javascript-alias.conf ]
  then
    ln -s /etc/javascript-common/lighttpd.conf /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/90-javascript-alias.conf
    restart="lighttpd"
  fi

  Probably it is meant to check if the symlink _target_ already exists
  and this is a typo? Will let the Debian maintainer decide.
