Matt,

We have hit an upgrade issue for 1.1.0 FOSSology so I wanted to get your 
take on if it's possible to take care of it with debian packages on upgrade.

Here is the problem:
-  New agent fo_notify.  Needs to be included in the Scheduler.conf 
file.  On an upgrade, most (if not all) of the time Scheduler.conf will 
exist and so will not be updated.  Without the update, when the 
scheduler is restarted after the upgrade, it will fail.  It can't find 
fo_notify.

Questions:
- Can the deb scripts  be set to forced an update of Scheduler.conf? 
- Is there a way to notify the user that Scheduler.conf MUST be updated? 
(Failure results if it is not updated/regenerated).
- We already have this in the release notes for 1.1.0, so we have 
documented it:

http://fossology.org/release_notes

- Are there other deb alternatives?  This can't be the first time a conf 
file has to be updated on upgrade.

Thanks for your help and advise.
