While /usr/bin/fax was the only place you could set these things previously, I can understand this. But now that there is /etc/efax.rc, is this still necessary? Perhaps a preinst script could detect whether configurations need to be extracted from /usr/bin/fax (and put into /etc/efax.rc) before it is clobbered? If it is listed in conffiles, then it won't go away when I remove the package, leaving (broken) executable software on my system. :( > Part a) is not a bug because /usr/spool is a soft link to /var/spool. True; the feeling I've been getting is that software should try to use the "correct" path instead wherever possible, but I agree this is probably rather insignificant. Thanks for the quick followup. -- Robert Leslie [EMAIL PROTECTED]
