[DNG] Fonts trouble on beowulf
Having a setup running beowulf with an Xfce Desktop, and whatever theme I choose, I get white links on clear backgrounds. In applications that support it (like evolution), if I drift away from system fonts and switch back to them, the links are black (and readable!) again. This oddity also appear in another way when text is highlighted, which make it unreadable too. I remember having such fonts problem when ascii came out, but I do not recall the fix. I remember some themes were eventually corrected though. Any hints?

I do not think so. epoch init-system change rarely, config file will be added in the project faster.

A DEBIAN folder with uppercase letters will be created within each generated packages. "DEBIAN" uppercase is required from `dpkg-deb -b`: " Creates a debian archive from the filesystem tree stored in binary-directory. binary-directory must have a DEBIAN subdirectory, which contains the control information files such as the control file itself." I don't create package with Debian normal method documented, I don't understand how make good package. - Create a debian/rules file. This file is paramount, but it's missing! I insert rules file.
