These used to be in the postinst, but were moved to build time as it caused issue for pango/gtk+ frontends during upgrades: if you're running a gtk+/pango debconf frontend, it needs these working at all times -- you can't allow it to break between unpack and new postinst's configure. -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
