I'd be happy to do that in theory, but in practice, I'm not sure how you can do that with a dpkg package. Did you have an approach in mind? I was trying to come up with a way of doing that, but nothing was coming to mind that wasn't kind of scary (like having the package build process determine whether it was being built on an Ubuntu or a Debian system and building packages with different contents on that basis, which seems like a bad idea since it will generate multiple *.deb files with the same name and version but different contents depending on where they're built). -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- karmic: /afs should be ready before gdm starts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
