Hi, I'm currently debconfizing one of my packages, uptimed. Two quoestions have arised:
- At the start of my config script, I import all settings from the real configuration file, if it exists. For some settings, this is trivial, for some, I need rather complex text processing. Since perl isn't essential, writing the script in perl would make the package depend on perl while this is unnecessary for normal operation. Would this be acceptable or should I find a better solution? - One of the strings should default to the empty string. How do I express that in a templates file?
