Sorry for the late reply, but you misstyped my e-mail (puparazzo instead of pupazzoo) so I managed to see your mail just now. > Your package [1] has a dpatch in debian/patches, but there doesn't seem > to be any rule to actually (de)apply it nor any build dependency on dpatch? Ops, just a leftover of a patch that was needed in versions < 1.0.8. Removed in svn trunk. > I thought dpkg-statoverride was meant to make it possible for the > sysadmin to override the package's permissions, but you first > unconditionally set the permissions and only afterwards call > dpkg-statoverride, how is that supposed to work? I reread the old threads on debian-mentors, and given that there is no prior package and www-data is in base-passwd, dpkg-statoverride is not needed (although [1] seems to imply that dpkg-statoverride should be used everytime a permission is changed in postinst) So I removed the postinst change and changed dh_fixperms appropriately in trunk. Thanks for noticing and let me know if you'd like me to upload a 1.0.8-2 to mentors. regards, Michele [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2008/08/msg00161.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
