I'm very interested in having xattrs included in deb packages. Which xattrs in particular are you interested in? Part of the problem is that fake-root creates the directory structure, but wouldn't be able to copy the security xattrs. Reading security xattrs is permitted, but writing security xattrs requires privilege. Mimi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-dpkg-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
