They shall not. All menu version >=2.0 understand both the new and the old menu structure.

file mounted after debootstrap + udev
Hi, I've been using debootstrap to produce my live linux based on debian 2.6.18 . At first, my system was built with devfs and everything was fine . Recently, i moved to udev (i added kernel support + udev package) and although the live linux works just fine , after the "build process" - there are mounted files that i cannot remove from my development machine. If i try to delete my "working directory", i got the following error: /bin/rm: cannot remove directory `working_dir/dev/.static/dev': Device or resource busy I've found out the following facts: 1. my build process installs an apache server 2. before running the build process , i had NO apache running 3. after running the build process , i an apache process is running 4. if i kill the apache process, umount the file , i can remove the directory My questions: - How come the build process starts an apache ? i thought it should just install it... - where should i look for the mount or apache installation scripts ? (it's not my scripts...so i have no idea... i'm kinda a newbie in this area...) - am i doing something wrong ? how can i prevent this behaviour ? - what's the "standard procedure" for building/installing a live linux with apache ? tnx, zferentz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Looks like a toolchain issue to me. You could ask on @buildd.debian.org to retry the package.

Yeah, the experimental/non-free/backports daemons are something else entirely.

Yes, but built from source, and the source of octave2.9-htmldoc contains the texinfo source. qtoctave doesn't, which is a breach of the GPL: you must be able to distribute the preferred form of modification, and not having it in the upstream sources - even when we know where they come from - makes it delicate for us to distribute it.

I'm one of Octave's Debian maintainers. The problematic part is that qtoctave is primarly a Windows application. I don't think they even have any sort of code for generating the HTML files from the Texinfo sources, so even including the texinfo files would still be a violation. Maybe they should just update the documentation and use the HTML files from [1]. I think the files there have a more liberal license.

I passed -y as an option, and then during the postinst, I have a situation where the package has a configuration file which is newer than what it is about to replace. I would like it to just replace the configuration file without asking me, but it won't do that, even if I pass the -y option.
