Hi David,

I few weeks ago I actually started working on a new version of the deb
packages, fixing multiple issues including:

- init scripts not being installed when packages are reinstalled or upgraded
- use addgroup and adduser in postscripts to avoid gid and uid conflicts
with other users.
- modify ossec configuration file to monitor debian/ubuntu files like
auth.log instead of authlog
- errors when frontend is set to noninteractive

Unfortunately I haven't had time to finish it yet, since I've been pretty
busy at work, but I plan to finish them sometime in the next few days. I
also created the packages for ubuntu that can be found at
http://ossec.wazuh.com/ubuntu/

I am now using an Ubuntu server to create all packages with pbuilder. I've
never packaged directly from a git repository, didn't even know it was
possible. Will definitely have a look into that.

Please don't hesitate to ask for help if you have questions. I'll be
sharing new deb files as soon as I have the new package version ready too.

Best
