Package: dumputils
Version: 0.4-6
Severity: serious
Hello,
dumputils modifies /etc/dumputils.conf in it's postinst script, which is
against Debian Policy 10.7.3.
This behaviour did lead to a) DUMP_FLAGS=0 appended to my dumputils.conf
although I had DUMP_FLAGS=1 manually configured there (this is btw. IMHO
one of the reasons why the policy forbids modification of conffiles :))
and b) this line being added *multiple* times.
If you think it's a good idea to manipulate config-files, please think
about using ucf.
If you still think it's agood idea to manipulate config-files, please
consider that package postinst is probably the wrong place to do it,
since kernels can change independently of the installation/upgrade of
dumputils. Probably it would be better to give some warning in the
init-script if it detects a configuration incompatible to the currently
running kernel.
Thanks for your work & regards
Mario
