Would it be possible to have a plugin interface to dpkg? I would like to write a plugin (.so) to be called for every file that dpkg installs before it is renamed to it's final name. After the file is fully created I would like my function to be called with two parameters, one being the file handle to the open file, the other being the name that will be used once the installation is complete.
This should have less overhead than my current method of assigning SE Linux file types to files, while also giving more flexibility. What do you think? I'm happy to code up a prototype if you think that the idea doesn't totally suck... -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page
