You are talking about (compiling the .py in postinst | installing them on the system without any compiled version); what was discussed previously is (compiling the .py in postinst | including the .py, .pyc and optionally .pyo in the .deb to avoid postinst byte-compilation). With the latter, a debconf question would not be very helpful since the .deb would have to ship the .pyc and/or .pyo anyway... -- Florent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
