I'm speechless... No I'm not supposed to preserve local change to internal files of a package. The place to modify if you want your change kept are changes to the stuff under /etc. If you modify any other file of the package, well, then you're on your own. If you want them to be preserved, use dpkg-divert. _That_ is what the policy says. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O madco...@debian.org OOO http://www.madism.org
