I see that I should not use dpatch to change a file in debian/, but I still think that using $PIDFILE to create the needed directory makes a lot of sense: it's a environment variable and therefor might get changed. It does no harm to be on the safe side here, does it?
I've taken the chown line from debian/postinst. Should I change the "." to ":" there, too? Apart from that, I had already merged the new upstream release and sent a debdiff to the Debian maintainer 10 days ago. No reply yet, but I will re-send it, including this patch. Thanks for looking into this. -- /var/run/popfile does not get re-created after reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126894 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
