This would be a non-normative change to Policy so it should be a separate bug. For this bug, let's stick with the wording that's consistent with what's already there -- i.e. the patch for this bug should not add "the postinst should contain" when just above we already have "put in your postinst". I agree with you, so please consider filing this bug. > (Maybe this deserves a section of its own?) I think we would be fine just to continue to sprinkle nudges towards debhelper tools at the relevant points in the Policy Manual. -- Sean Whitton
