Hello. I'm looking for way to bundle some files in .deb package which are unpacked to filesystem during installation or upgrade, but aren't touched nor managed by dpkg beyond it. Is there way to achieve it? Let me describe the situation: I use dpkg in embedded device, which is not really fast, so fontconfig cache generation may take quite a long time. I would like to generate fontconfig caches during build, add them to package and then install them alongside the fonts. OTOH, those caches may become invalid (e.g. if user drops another file in directory with fonts, even if file dropped belongs to another package), so dpkg shouldn't care about the changes to this file, nor register it in database. -- http://fossarchy.blogspot.com/
