Ok, thanks, people, for your help.
The deb package seems to be fixed in terms of the firewall init.d
script and it's removal and install behaviour, but I can't seem to
get file permissions working!
I have the following lines in my debian/rules file:
...
install: build
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_clean -k
dh_installdirs
install --mode=700 --owner=root rc.firewall debian/rcf/usr/sbin
...
---
I have read the install manual page, which is where I found the
--mode and --owner options, but they don't seem to be working, as I
still get this when I install the debian package (it runs the
firewall init.d script afterwards):
Performing Security Checks...
The owners and/or permissions for /usr/sbin/rc.firewall are incorrect.
Please execute the following commands:
chmod 0700 /usr/sbin/rc.firewall
chown root:root /usr/sbin/rc.firewall
These problems must be addressed before running rc.firewall again.
---
Can anyone give some advice as to why this might not be working?
Thanks
