Thanks, I'd forgotten about downgrades. I set it to handle them by copying quake2deb.conf to quake2.conf when `postrm upgrade old-version' is run.
Testing this this turned up a problem. The new package has two config files where the old package had only one. If I downgrade to the old package the second config file isn't removed. If I purge the old version at that point the second config file is left on the system. Am I causing this somehow? -- Roderick Schertler [EMAIL PROTECTED]
