dear debian-pkg,
last year i began cross-compiling packages for win32 using mingw32
(installed under wine and also using mingw32-cross). i spent one week
fighting with libicu38 and 90 other dependencies just to get one
application compiled (webkit). i hunted down a dozen different
obscure bits o

this may sound a little odd, and it can be achieved by simply splitting
packages up and creating meta-packages.
but i would like to see dependencies be optional and based on
configure-time user input.
for example.

hi,
at http://selinux.lemuria.org/newselinux/ some patches can be found
which are to communicate with an SELinux enabled/compiled kernel.
the patch to dpkg is to do some pre-running and post-running.
i don't know if this is already done, but it i

follow-up, i found some references to dpkg and postinst.d:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2002/03/msg00154.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2002/03/msg02063.html
the first thread gets a "THANK YOU! THANK YOU!" from one
person, and wichert raises the question of error
i've just heard from scott remnant who kindly responded with a
description of how he envisages debian's "triggers" system to work.
*deep breath*.
for those people involved with this issue, i really must say this:
- please read this message carefully.
- please read all of it.

a summary follows of the discussions of dpkg between scott and myself
(my thanks to scott for taking the time to read what i wrote yesterday,
and for responding).
- dpkg needs in some way to set up the selinux file contexts of each
and every file, directory, symlink and inode of a package it in

hi,
i need to know how dpkg does its file moving.
the reason is because i am finding out if, in considering patching
dpkg to support selinux, whether it's necessary to add an extra
argument to the use of "/bin/mv" command in movecontrolfiles()
to preserve file contexts.
or is there some other fu
