The problem is, IIUC, that we can't use prerm/postinst to handle an old buggy shishid if we at the same time have a shishi-kdc do: Provides: shishid Conflicts: shishid Replaces: shishid When I run dist-upgrade, dpkg will use the prerm from the old shishid package, which fails, and there is no prerm from the "new" shishid, because there is no new shishid. One solution I see would be to provide an "empty" shishid with the prerm, that depends on shishi-kdc, and remove the above Provides/Conflicts/Replaces. We can remove that package once the package has been in testing for a couple of months. What do you think? /Simon _______________________________________________ Help-shishi mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-shishi
