That's correct. If somebody has changed the system defaults I don't want overide these. Hmm... I have not changed the system defaults: the Fig* files were put there (/etc/X11/app-defaults) by previous installation of XFig (3.2.4), which was the first I did for Cygwin-1.7. So, if now they are not overwritten and XFig complains about them, it looks a little strange. It's actually a preremove problem, not a postinstall problem. It looks like the previous xfig package was missing its preremove script, which would have removed the old Fig* files if they were unchanged from the defaults. The new xfig does have such a script, so this shouldn't be a problem in the future (assuming you manually copy the default files and don't change them).

That's correct. If somebody has changed the system defaults I don't want overide these. Just copy /etc/defaults/etc/X11/app-defaults/Fig yourself.

It looks a postinstall problem: == if [ ! -f /etc/X11/app-defaults/Fig ] then /usr/bin/mkdir -p /etc/X11/app-defaults /usr/bin/cp /etc/defaults/etc/X11/app-defaults/Fig /etc/X11/app-defaults/Fig fi if [ ! -f /etc/X11/app-defaults/Fig-color ] then /usr/bin/mkdir -p /etc/X11/app-defaults /usr/bin/cp /etc/defaults/etc/X11/app-defaults/Fig-color /etc/X11/app-defaults/Fig-color fi == If I read correctly, if Fig* files exist in '/etc/X11/app-defaults', they are not replaced with new. Indeed, in my system, the Fig* file in '/etc/defaults/etc/X11/app-defaults' belong to 3.2.5b, instead those in '/etc/X11/app-defaults' belong to 3.2.4! Ciao, Angelo.
