The 'config file handling via dpkg-divert' isn't really supported in Debian - though I'm wondering what's happening on your system here. Getting some .original.dpkg-new and .dpkg-old files in /etc is "normal", but above is something I never experienced so far. Again, I'll try reproduce it with grml-small 0.4. regards, -mika- -- http://grml.org/ # Linux for texttool-users and sysadmins http://wiki.grml.org/ # share your knowledge http://grml.supersized.org/ # the grml development weblog #grml @ irc.freenode.org # meet us on irc
