A few more minor problems:
* In interface.fl:163:
callback {system("xterm -e zless /usr/share/doc/stripclub/readme.txt.gz");}
You can't rely on xterm being available unless you depend upon it, and
even still, that's bad practice. Instead, you should use
/usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator.

I think you're missing the point. It's not that developers think this
should not be packaged. It's that packaging a web app is so difficult
to get right that only developers with a very strong personal interest

I'd like to adopt the mysql-navigator package so I'm looking for a
sponsor. I've packaged the latest upstream source and cleaned up the
package a bit. In particular, I've fixed the 2 RC bugs.

I have a perl postinst script that "gets stuck" when running certain
external commands. For example, the line

Hi Joey,
I have a prospective package that checks for the environment variable
DPKG_RECONFIGURE=1 in the postinst, and if it decides that it's being
reconfigured, it will overwrite its configuration file (not a conffile)
based on the debconf answers. The theory is that if a user reconfigures
a pa
