Do it in preinst (and don't forget to add the proper error recovery to move
it back should the install fail), and dpkg will not complain.

Hi,
I've just changed the directories of the conffile, binaries etc. to
conform with Policy 3.5.5.0.
The old conffile dir was /etc/X11/filerunner and the new one is /etc/filerunner
and the problem is that when installing new package, and an older version is
installed, dpkg gives an error message,

Hi,
I've just changed the directories of the conffile, binaries etc. to
conform with Policy 3.5.5.0.
The old conffile dir was /etc/X11/filerunner and the new one is /etc/filerunner
and the problem is that when installing new package, and an older version is
installed, dpkg gives an error message,

You can only have one Build-Depends in the control file for the source
package.
Hi!
Can I put a different Build-Depends for each binary package in a control
file or can there only be a Build-Depends for the source package?
The problem I have is that I have a library with same host architecture but
different cross compilation targets, so I have things like:

I think I would just remove the package, since the package has
only entered unstable, and not on testing
