Is it against Debian rules to ask > the user to enter a directory path in the postinst script? What exactly are you trying to achieve by listing /home in debian/dirs? What are you trying to do in the postinst-Script? Fact is that auctiongallery is a tool which should be usable by any user on the system, each with his/her own configuration. Does auctiongallery allow this? regards, Sven PS: Please try to follow the common quoting style: Quote only what you directly refer to, only as much as needed and quote each part you are replying to directly above your respective answer/comment.
