Just out of curiosity I downloaded the package above. Looking at it with "dpkg -c", shows a lot of stuff to be installed to /usr/libexec/webmin/. Which seems odd to me, since a) curently there are no packages in debian installing something to /usr/libexec b) most of it seems to be architecture independend and should therefore be in /usr/share/fooo c) Uhm... btw... how did you created a debian package without any architecture part (e.g. webmin_1.290_all.deb or webmin_1.290_i386.deb) d) it missed necassary files, like the debian changelog, copyright information etc. e) It seems to install files with jcameron/uucp as uid/gid? f) Hmmm... the old webmin packages were splitted in many smaller packages; I think that was usefull Yours sincerely, Alexander -- http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#377948: TAG: Webmin -- A web-based administration interface for Unix systems.
Package: wnpp Severity: ITP Webmin is a web-based interface for system administration for Unix. Using any browser that supports tables and forms (and Java for the File Manager module), you can setup user accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and so on. Webmin consists of a simple web server, and a number of CGI programs which directly update system files like /etc/inetd.conf and /etc/passwd. The web server and all CGI programs are written in Perl version 5, and use no non-standard Perl modules. A Debian package of Webmin is available from: http://www.webmin.com/download/deb/webmin_1.290.deb Webmin is distributed under a BSD license. - Jamie -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
