I do have it pointing to debian/tmp. The output doesn't list any errors: chmod 2755 debian/tmp/usr/bin/jwhois chgrp users debian/tmp/usr/bin/jwhois [...] dh_suidregister /usr/bin/jwhois Which generates this in postinst: # Automatically added by dh_suidregister if command -v suidregister >/dev/null 2>&1 && [ -e /etc/suid.conf ]; then suidregister -s jwhois /usr/bin/jwhois root root 0755 elif [ -e /usr/bin/jwhois ]; then chown root.root /usr/bin/jwhois chmod 0755 /usr/bin/jwhois fi # End automatically added section -- \\// peter - http://www.softwolves.pp.se/
