Still the package never > found the base debian/ Just to be clear, your preinst looks like it'll try to install the script at /root/debian/scripts-bd/script.sh into /opt. Unless of course dpkg changes its current working directory. If you're trying to install a script from the debian directory of the package source, you can't do that in preinst, as the .deb has not yet been unpacked. You instead would have to have sucked that script into the preinst and catted it back out into /opt/ or whereever. And then it would be outside dpkg's knowledge. Mind you, my bizarre-o-meter is currently off in the red, suggesting that you may be having a problems with the wrong solution to whatever the problem is. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, B.Sc, LPI, MCSE On-hiatus Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) Paul.Hampson@Pobox.Com Of course Pacman didn't influence us as kids.
