My debian/ scripts were generated by dh-make 0.38 on a Sarge setup. After I committed them to my version control system, I began using a sid box as I should have been all along and checked them out of my repository (and didn't use sid's dh-make 0.41) ... I've added in the suggested copyright line now anyway. > what you want is >/dev/null 2>&1 Go raibh maith agat. :) > suexec is an architecture-dependent file, so by the FHS it *must* be > in /usr/lib.

True, but my understanding was that docs of any type, shape, or form go into /usr/share. Just as Micah mentions in the afor mentioned bug thread, he argues that shell scripts don't count as docs, I would consider that it does fall under the clause "/usr/lib includes object files, libraries, and internal binaries that are not intended to be executed directly by users or shell scripts." - since I don't want it to end up in a user's $PATH. I'm not opposed to placing it in /usr/share/queuegraph over /usr/lib/queuegraph. I'll move it to /usr/share unless someone comes up with a good reason not to. > About the else... well, it does not hurt, but it's a sign that you > "yoinked" code without really understanding what it does.

It was a case statement, which isn't overly hard to work out what it's doing. I simply lifted the case conditions names, since they're obviously rather specific to the various operations a maintainer script can invoke. My bad, I figured an existing package was a good reference, given it had completed the Debian QA process... > Great. Thanks for your work! And thank you for your constructive feedback. I plan on saving it for future reference... :) > Ping me privately if needed, I'll sponsor the package. Cool, thanks. I'll buy you a beer next time you're up in civilisation^WDublin. :) (and no, I'm not trying to buy sponsorship of my package with alcohol, this is merely how we Irish express our gratitude... :) -- Conall O'Brien +353 (0)1 6535148 | sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.conall.net The programmer's national anthem is 'AAAAAAAARRRRGHHHHH!!'.
