Hey all, I'm more than happy to leave it to Alexander to fix this up. Comments on the NMU diff now proposed for 567770: I would probably have added the links to debian/e16-data.links... I realise there's a comment explaining that dh has already processed it, but I don't buy it. Not sure about all the 'mv' commands, either - autoreconf is already getting called, and I would personally patch config/Makefile.am. Also, is there any chance a loop could make the maintainer scripts shorter? (The above is all a matter of style, however, and I'd prefer a working package to a removed one.) I might be missing something, but if the user upgraded to 1.0.0-3.1 from a previous version, would /usr/share/e16/config not be an empty directory? So won't the rm -f in the preinst fail? I had vague plans to test this. Take this all with a pinch of salt; it's ridiculous o'clock over here. :) Regards, -- Tim Retout <dioc...@debian.org> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
