Could you give a short example how postinst would look like for the case
that package foo is split int foo in version 1.0-1
Making the example a bit more verbose:
before the split:
binary package foo:
/bin/foo
/bin/bar
/etc/foo.conf
/etc/bar.conf
(both marked as conffiles)
after the split (done in version 1.0-1):
binary package foo:
/bin/foo
/etc/foo.conf
binary package bar:
/bin/bar
/etc/bar.conf
Package foo in version 1.0-1 does not have a dependency on bar, so bar
is not guaranteed to be installed.
There is also the case, where bar has been split off upstream into a
separate src package, but I assume this can be handled equally.
Now I'm interested how the maintainer scripts have to look like, so we
don't get any obsolete conffiles in foo.
Cheers,
Michael
