Sorry, please ignore my message: I messed up. Usually I have a directory
that stores the slackbuilds' files cleaned of any files I use for testing.
Before the submission of a tarball I check with sbolint the package's 
directory.
After testing the update for postgis, I copied into its directory the 
new file
douninst.sh but not the slackbuild script, so sbolint has returned the 
error
