Hi all, Can you think of any sensible reason for not including md5sums of control files, especially the {pre,post}{inst,rm} scripts ? In the shasum file, those files could be either: 1. inserted, with the patch rewritten to match their expected location on the target system. or 2. inserted as a *comment* in the shasum file, like: #68b329da9893e34099c7d8ad5cb9c940 CONTROL.TAR:postinst Thanks, Franklin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
