Such a tool would certainly be very useful, but doing it right would be fairly hard, as far as I see. And it would require assistance from at least the package maintainer, to mark in which versions the unit file under /lib changed, so that it can trigger only when appropriate and not on every upgrade. (And there's possibly other corner cases to consider, but they escape me right now..) -- |8] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
