liz, could you provide more detail about the process you went through so i can duplicate the behavior? there is already logic in the pre/post scripts that *should* upgrade the weewx.conf file when you do a .deb upgrade (using dpkg or apt). when it encounters changes to weewx.conf, it *should* do the standard debian prompts about changed files. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
