  I'm not sure which package file it was in (probably debian-policy)
but i was reading the debian-policy file.  I didn't change whatever
the 2.0 CD set-up.  I have upgraded to slink, but again, I didn't
change the method used so I thought I would learn about it from the
policy manual.  Ok, I just looked and yes, I do have file-rc
installed!(?)  How I don't know but its here.  Now I have some more
docs to read.  I know I never selected it when I installed 2.o so it
must have been changed by my apt-get upgrade.  Live & learn.

Thanks Maetin, I would never have check into that but for you post.
