So I'm wondering if someone can > implement Adam's solution and provide patches. Bart? I have some patches against dpkg 1.10. I realize that as it stands Adam will not accept the full patch -- he pointed out parts that he does not like. I agree it's a hack. :/ I hope that the work I am doing will provide of some merrit towards dpkg 2.00. I will port these patches to 1.11 once that is released. As some of you know, I have a new responsibility now -- my 2 week old daugher -- and have quite a bit less time to work on this stuff. I am plowing through it but not at the rate I would want -- winning the lottery would be nice :) Anyway, I have some bug fixes to work through first (glibc & fakeroot specifically) and after that I hope to resume my goal to document all the stuff I have changed. Cheers, Bart. -- WebSig: http://www.jukie.net/~bart/sig/
