With mixtures of the new and old > postinsts? Good question! Let's look at them individually. The old postinst just uses --add which is idempotent (old and new). So this should all work out. The old postrm just does rm and the old prerm does --remove on the root catalog. This should work as well (even though it now leaves a comment). The prerm however needs updating as well, as it should no longer --remove on upgrade (as we can no longer --add on upgrade). > I'm happy moving ahead with the debhelper changes as soon as sgml-base > is in unstable. Good. This would also necessitate a versioned dependency on sgml-base. Do you want a diff for debhelper?
