It is indeed ugly but I don't see any other way. And as I said you need this for soname changes anyway. If you write the file in postinst (then probably using ucf) you would have to remove the file in postrm on purge. But if lidldap2 and libldap3 are installed and libldap2 is purged the conffile must remain. Same under multiarch if libldap2:i386 and libldap2:amd64 are installed and one is purged. Currently a file just can't belong to 2 packages without causing problems. MfG Goswin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
