So, reading http://release.debian.org/etch_rc_policy.txt I've found (in 3.) that conffiles MUST be plain text. firebird2-server-common has one conffile: /var/lib/firebird2/system/security.fdb. This is a regular firebird database and is not plain text. This is why I bump the severity. Managing it as a conffile really makes no sense, as Hamish noted. I plan to make it behave as a configuration file. A nice side effect will be elimination of a lintian warning (now overridden) about non-/etc conffile. On first install it should be copied from some example directory. On upgrade: - if there are no changes in the database schema, required by the new version, do nothing - if there are changes, required for the new version, save a backup and upgrade. On cross-generations downgrade: - issue a warning and let admin do the rest by hand. I am wondering if there is some benefit of moving security.fdb in /etc/firebird... - -- dam -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFERUtjHqjlqpcl9jsRAqE0AJ9zjHWmGyRR5HkJKX+/ghZnvb3EqgCfREDO 7VcNUZk3TIgoJvJwS1LK++Y= =AEov -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
