I looked at the documentation for ucf and briefly played with it. If you want to use ucf, I guess you need to put it as a "Depends:" for your package, right? Which packages are using ucf today for their configuration needs? Dumb question: Did you envision a version of 'ucf' that would not rely on being installed on the machine but directly integrated in the post and pre scripts? Having multiple copy of 'ucf' laying around is not really effective though but, that one less package to install. ucf is keeping one hashfile for all the files that depend on it in /var/lib/ucf. One other option, would have been to store one hashfile per package. A lot of thoughts as been put in 'ucf' and I will give it a shot for phpldapadmin. I am interested in the decision you made for your design. David. -- David Segonds - PGP 0x1F7A3E7A
