[ I goofed on the first message. Use this one instead. :-]
The "xpdf" postinst needs to add itself to the mailcap file so it can be spawned by web browsers. I suggest the following in the postinst: if [ -x /usr/sbin/install-mime ] then install-mime --install --package=xpdf --content=application/pdf \ --description='Adobe "Acrobat" File' --nametemplate="%s.pdf" \ --view="/usr/bin/X11/xpdf %s" --test='test "$DISPLAY" != ""' fi And the following in the prerm: if [ -x /usr/sbin/install-mime ] then install-mime --remove --package=xpdf fi The 'if' statements can be removed if you want to add a dependancy on "mime-support (>=2.0)".
