Great to eliminate another class of maintainer scripts in favor of something declarative. Does this require triggers, or no action at all at installation time? Could this system support byte-compilation in the future? For that matter, is there any fundamental reason that byte-compilation couldn't occur at package build time on the buildds, rather than at installation time? - Josh Triplett -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-emacsen-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
