Log:
Robustify xfree86-common maintainer scripts.
- debian/xfree86-common.{config,preinst,postinst,postrm}.in:
+ improve comments
+ remove long-commented-out fiddling with rgb.txt
+ convert informational messages to debugging messages
+ add debugging messages for tracing of various operations
+ move removal of long-obsoleted /etc/X11/window-managers file from
postinst to preinst
- debian/xfree86-common.config.in:
+ wrap db_* commands with safe_debconf
- debian/xfree86-common.preinst.in:
+ Stop removing /usr/doc/X11 and /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc symlinks; after
taking a look at old xfree86 package releases (potato, slink, hamm),
I've concluded that old packages get these symlinks out of the way
adequately. If the local admin wants to install symlinks here, it's
no sweat off me.
+ conditionalize removal of long-obsoleted /etc/X11/window-managers file
on upgrades/installs over xfree86-common 3.3.6-5
