Hm. That's an interesting thought, although it's going to fail if no X server is currently running, correct? > 5) If I wanted to have symbolic links checked with dh_link, what is the > preferred way to enter an absolute path to your current location in the > file?

You should provide the full path of the target file to dh_link. dh_link will then do whatever is necessary to make it a Policy-compliant link. So if you're linking to a file in /usr/share/<package>, the source should start with that. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
