To use such a library, it must be guaranteed to be present on your system. You can achieve that by depending (or even pre-depending if you need preinst/prerm scripts) but there is no guarantee at all for postrm/postinst scripts. Once you realized that, you can think how to make it available to your package. There your solution to depend on another package sounds feasible (and, well, over-engineered). As another alternative which comes me in mind is a pseudo-shared library. You would put the common functions into debian/maintscripts-common and copy its contents at build time to a defined position in your maintainer script (e.g. just like debhelper does with #DEBHELPER#). - -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJPbxFEAAoJEMcrUe6dgPNtXuQP/jICuWA8nTt9/B01pRuPGro5 Ydboc4UnqgVSD+LAdN+nr0HplBGdJRc/TXeFD0zTcy/JePbgCBAvWJd9aOMZ7KUl dD9hj8abxSb2uLQBZq1cJycGkowZ9x9FUf8j2c8g9xKvWao2ZGGy4TX+PjCskhK2 Oux7FWF59pamn4nsfq24wRIe3QHPiTB/LCET/cSHWXY7Q/pordmRnOPwu6GYA5jV Pylx194jAyDh722I724DLeQUTXNLttLcE4sYEGF8gbJeIjwceGYflaa1mWKLHmAx sFo6MARZh20sijZW0dzJ9A+2d00VGmc9ASxr6szlVKwkO9wXo+aeNDu7yLtWRKCK szWWR2pKwHZJT71150noGMRyq4W6H/LSTdGDna8aq4SNQ4Nt1OezGxlRwhGxayZ6 e4sX0S/DEiustxqG5jF5P1W8hNDxtyn+EcwRKCqcyQsuuevxAhElg9MgomDb/PlL YDNrht7FYzbum0fllDTCjYMebAh/hFA2mXNAa6keel/H55Fx92d2OWxVAaGvaJP9 EYlvjJBzSmx+oRbT9LWdiN5Cy9eMkMvClQXFqE3EUR0mw7NqJxie8lKjobU7CCey tOloiLv4fb3DLPLyowYU99ZhXPqXU5snwpoa6w6BjSDNqlQHDFSIO+7dejUMVe4O JbEpk36kY3GYNt1QIjAd =UUuC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
