Hello, It seems that currently the path-exclude/path-include options specified in /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg* are not taken into account in the dpkg --list output.
The "cruft" program uses dpkg --list to discover what files dpkg has installed. Thus in some cases it it expects files to be present while they were omitted by dpkg during unpack. I have a bug (http://bugs.debian.org/619086) against the "cruft" package to respect the path-exclude/path-include options specified in /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg* However I think that this would be best implemented within the dpkg package (either in dpkg proper - possibly as an option, or in a helper filter program) because it already contains all the code to parse options files and apply the filters to individual files. Please let me know what you think? Please keep the bug in CC for the record. regards, -- Marcin Owsiany <porri...@debian.org> http://marcin.owsiany.pl/ GnuPG: 1024D/60F41216 FE67 DA2D 0ACA FC5E 3F75 D6F6 3A0D 8AA0 60F4 1216 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-dpkg-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
