Oh, and if you do happen to chat with anyone dpkg-related, as an alternative, it might be handy if we had a tool (dpkg or other) that could properly sort a list of packages in dependency order (i.e. to replace our possibly sketchy tsorting). (...if we've understood it correctly, the very limited guarantees wrt the state of dependencies during maintainer script invocations is the primary complexity. I wonder how many maintainers realize just how limited they are, if you want to get it *right*.) -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org and @debian.org GPG as of 2011-07-10 E6A9 DA3C C9FD 1FF8 C676 D2C4 C0F0 39E9 ED1B 597A GPG as of 2002-11-03 14DD 432F AE39 534D B592 F9A0 25C8 D377 8C7E 73A4
