Currently: - if everything is moved to pkg_preinst(), the message will not show at the end of the merge, so much higher chance of getting missed. - if everything is moved to pkg_postinst(), $udev_version will be the new version, and be of no use. - if you meant that this is for the pkg_warn() ... it still wont really help that much, as it will differ from before/after the update :/ -- Martin Schlemmer
