Not sure if it is a good idea to hardcode in the names of debian releases like that. The package should work also after sarge is released, and a new version is being developed. > It will read the /etc/debian_version and accordingly run the > appropriate scripts from the correct directory. This do not work. We tried collecting that info in popularity-contest, and it is often changed in unpredictable ways. We have been unable to find a sure way to detect which version/codename of debian is installed. I'm not sure how it is best to handle this, but suspect the scripts need to change behaviour depending on the version of packages installed, not depending on the debian codename being used. > In the meantime, since the current ispell configuration is > debconf-based, I will make one extra script for sarge > ispell.preinst.
