I do nearly 100 package builds a year (various snapshot releases and occasional official patches) on multiple variants of SunOS and Linux. The build process has not changed dramatically since ~2.0. The core install_root + config parameters interface is still the same. If the old package interface broke, I would have noticed. Even with multi-instance support coming in 2.6, the basics won't change. Just don't forget to run: # postfix set-permissions upgrade-configuration when upgrading a system with an existing configuration. -- Viktor.
