I'm packaging polipo, the web proxy.
To help with starting, stopping etc. I wrote a helper script
"polipo-control" that I put in /usr/lib/polipo/. It is called by

How can I make this script executable? Can I get dh_install or another
debhelper script to do it somehow or shal
I provide to align the "Section" tag... but the bad behaviour persist :
