Hi Lex, Thanks for the reply.

Which says: "The /etc hierarchy contains configuration files. A "configuration file" is a local file used to control the operation of a program; it must be static and cannot be an executable binary." Is it something that asciidoc supports through it's Makefile now? In any case, I'll look at what the debian package does and I'll update the spec accordingly.
