This might be robust enough.
I think I have a reasonably robust model for this, I have put packages for testing under http://dict-common.alioth.debian.org/experimental (changes file signed in the sources subdir). I will play with it a bit more before uploading, but seems to be working pretty well. A sumary of the changes: * debian/dictionaries-common.templates: - Declare itself as an ispell dictionary and wordlist with a manual value, so a manual option is added to the debconf selection menu. * scripts/system/{update,remove}-default.in: - Behavior adjusted when debconf selection is ~manual~ to not try setting symlinks. * debian/dictionaries-common.config-base: - Make sure shared question is prompted if ~manual~ is not yet one of the options. I named the entry ~manual~ ... so is always sorted last in the menu. Suggestions are welcome. Cheers, -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
