There's two issues, the trigger script giving an error, and the postinst etc giving an error. If the postinst gives an error then my script must still be run (doing otherwise may leave the system in a state where it's impossible to login). However the interface should specify that the postinst had failed because other scripts used by other packages will need it. If my script was to return an error then I think that dpkg should consider it to be the same as if the postinst had returned an error and leave the package unconfigured. -- If you send email to me or to a mailing list that I use which has >4 lines of legalistic junk at the end then you are specifically authorizing me to do whatever I wish with the message and all other messages from your domain, by posting the message you agree that your long legalistic sig is void. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
