The bugs aren't just about the binary bit, they're also about the fact that you shouldn't have conffiles in /var. > So, is it a problem to have conffiles being binary ?

Why not just ship the files in /usr/lib or something and then in the postinst copy them to the place the package access them from if they aren't already there? -- "You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream - or a fever." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
