Sorry, I messed things up: This I had found out yet, by the same way. However, /etc/init.d/hostname.sh is from sysvinit, and I couldn't find the place where the rcS.d-link to hostname.sh is made, neiter in sysvinit's postinst nor in debootstrap. > I am under the impression that it is good practice to let the > maintainers of sysvinit know when you add packages with initscripts, > though I cannot find any supposting documentation with a glance in > usr/share/doc/sysv-rc or usr/share/doc/debian-policy I don't add the package, I just update it from "prehistoric" version 0.82 to 0.92. But the init script and link are there, even in the old package. I just wanted to be sure that it doesn't break with recent changes. Thanks, Frank -- Frank Küster, Biozentrum der Univ. Basel Abt.
