Hi all, I am a happy Debian user for quite some time now. Only recently have I begun making my own debian packages. The only real issue I've come across with no answer (from the maint-guide and other related documentation as well as #debian on irc.openprojects.net) is related to the file debian/crontab. When I run deb-make from within the appropriate directory it creates the sub directory "debian" with various example file (denoted by the .ex suffix). This is all fine and dandy and I haven't needed any of these files until now. I need to be able to make crontab entires in the system wide crontab. For my purposes cron.daily and cron.hourly are not usefull enough. So I go ahead and edit the debian/crontab.ex and save it as debian/crontab. I build the package (with no problems) yet when I install the package I can see no evidence what so ever of the crontab. What am I doing wrong? Is there some other configuration file that I have to inform that the crontab file exists? Thanks in advance for any help ;) -- Kevin C. Krinke Open Door Software Inc.
