I have just started to package nightfall (an astronomy application) and when I run lintian everything is fine except I get a load of:
W: nightfall: executable-not-elf-or-script usr/share/nightfall/data/mr_cygR2.dat W: nightfall: executable-not-elf-or-script usr/share/nightfall/data/dd_monV.dat W: nightfall: executable-not-elf-or-script usr/share/nightfall/doc/C/Introduction.html W: nightfall: executable-not-elf-or-script usr/share/nightfall/cfg/51_peg.cfg W: nightfall: executable-not-elf-or-script usr/share/nightfall/cfg/mr_cyg.cfg W: nightfall: executable-not-elf-or-script usr/share/nightfall/doc/C/help0.txt 1) how do I make these non executable.? 2) how can I put the config (cfg) files in /etc/hightfall (the package uses a confgure script, but I can't specify the config file dir), prehaps symlinks --> how would I do this? Thanks for any help! -- John Travers "Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us!"
