[Bug 1608927] Re: fix postinst in s390-tools in xenial

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

** Description changed:

- as per infinity, the version check is wrong firing on every upgrade.
+ 
+ [Impact] 
+ 
+  * On each upgrade there is an attempt to remove bogus directory which
+ has been gone since 1.34.0-0ubuntu8.1, thus the guard to remove the
+ directory should use the correct version number for xenial, i.e.
+ 1.34.0-0ubuntu8.1 not 1.34.0-0ubuntu10.
+ 
+  * as per infinity, the version check is wrong firing on every upgrade.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * install s390-tools from updates
+  * upgrade to this new version from proposed
+  * during this upgrade one should not see error message from rmdir
+ 
+ Setting up s390-tools (1.34.0-0ubuntu8.5) ...
+ rmdir: failed to remove '/3770': No such file or directory
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * This is a fixup of a typo in version check, it is a cosmetic change
+ to make sure pointless warnings are not shown. There is little harm in
+ trying to remove the bogus/gone directory. And even less harm in
+ stopping to try to remove it going further.
