Ok, thanks, it's there.
How should errors in postinstall scripts be handled? It is tempting
to replace
postinstall.cc:
find (cygpath ("/etc/postinstall", 0), run_script_in_etc_postinstall);
with something vaguely like
for (size_t n = 1; n <= db.packages.number (); n++)
if (try_run_script ("/etc/postinstall/", name))
warning ("postinstall of %s failed"
"please examine or rerun /etc/postinstall/%s.sh manually",
name, name));
But, afaik, there's no need for a package's postinstall script to be
called '<pkg->name>.sh'? Should/can we enforce something like this?
