Package: tftpd-hpa
Version: 5.0-2
Severity: serious
Hi,
The tftpd-hpa package blows away any change a user made to
/etc/default/tfpd-hpa. This is not allowed by policy, and a warning
message that tells you not to edit the file directly does not solve
this.
You have several options:
- Allow the user to set a variable in the config file that, if set, will
prevent the package to blow it away;
- Read the config file in your tftpd-hpa.config script, and use it (with
db_set) to seed the defaults of your debconf configuration. If you
take this option, you should take care not to remove any additional
customization the user might have made (for instance by using sed to
edit the file);
- Combine the above two (which is the preferable option)
For an example of the last option, see the nbd-client package.
