Right. The maintainer scripts in <<1.0.7 would completely ignore all the xfs restart logic. They should work fine now, but the transition from the old buggy ones to the new fixed ones is not perfect yet. When upgrading from << 1.0.7, the old buggy prerm is called and it systematically stops xfs without telling the new postinst to restart it later. We may need a special case like "if upgrading from <<1.0.7, start the daemon anyway". I'll look at it. Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
