Hello all, I'm not sure if this is the best list for this question so please correct me if not.
I am putting together some packages for our internal servers and have an SQL file that I need to run on the database during the package install. I realize I could put the .sql file in /tmp and simply remove it after I've successfully imported it into the mysql database like this: service mysqld stop mysqld --bootstrap < /tmp/dbscript.sql service mysqld start rm /tmp/dbscript.sql But I am wondering if there is a better place for this? For example if I include the .sql file in the control.tar.gz file (where the postinst script is) can I access that somehow via the postinst script? Or is there some other temporary location I can include in my .deb's that will be accessible during postinst? I hope this makes sense!
