ok, from the beginning. i build a config file from the postinst script. since i do this, i can't use conffile. therefore i have to deal with certain installation situations myself, like upgrading, installing. i don't exactly know which of the ways a maintainer script can be called affect config files (yes, i have an idea which ones I need, but want to be certain). that's why i want a package which can be used as a guide for doing this in my mpackages. clear now? > .. You're trying to edit files that are created in the post-inst ? yes and no, but i have to handle it by myself, like purging. so long Othmar
