I see your point. It seemed to me that the current menu documentation was encouraging package maintainers to include the update-menus calls, which would be superfluous if dh_installmenu is being called. I just thought it might be simple to add a note that dh_installmenu can also handle this in the documentation--I filed this bug report in part because a package I adopted had both a call to dh_installmenu and a postrm file that did nothing other than call update-menus. In this case, removal of the postrm file did not change the functionality of the package. However, I definitely agree that the current wording is not wrong. Feel free to close the bug report if you so desire. Cheers, -- Daniel Moerner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
