Hello Cyril, Cyril Brulebois [2009-06-07 1:09 +0200]: > I might wait until a new upstream release is issued, though
Sure, that's fine. No particular hurry, I just wanted to let you know about the current plans, as well as check if you have any concerns. > Oh, hell. udev location finally chosen for real?! :p Let's see what's more fashionable next year :-) But seriously, this will stick around for a while. > I'm now wondering what to do with customizations that might have > happened over the time with the various conffiles that were shipped. > Trashing them might lose valuable customization.

Yes, /etc/udev/rules.d/ is still considered and preferred. In fact the current split now makes it easier to customize: Packages only ship stuff in /lib/udev/rules.d/ and thus don't have to mess with dpkg conffile questions, and the user can add her own rules to /etc/. > (Damn, some day we'll get “nice” maintainer scripts and rules files?) In fact I think that except for some "old files" cleanup in postinst (which we need to keep around until the squeeze release) we don't need any maintainer script at all any more. \o/ Martin -- Martin Pitt | http://www.piware.de Ubuntu Developer (www.ubuntu.com) | Debian Developer (www.debian.org)
