Peter S Galbraith: > Can debhelper do this? Yes, see the man page for dh_suidregister
I can't figure it out. I have created a debian/suid file: ===[ cut ]=== jwhois /usr/bin/jwhois root users 2755 ===[ cut ]=== But when I try to install, all I get is: Setting up jwhois (2.3pre3-1) ... Installing new version of config file /etc/jwhois.conf ... suidregister: /jwhois not found dpkg: error processing jwhois (--install): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: jwhois Perhaps it's the incorrect syntax? I couldn't find any information about the syntax of that file anywhere. I also get a number of errors during creation: dh_suidregister Use of uninitialized value at /usr/bin/dh_suidregister line 51.
