Special upgrade rules from rex->bo->hamm
It just ocurred to me that we might want to include a hook for special
upgrade rules akin to the script being written (mostly by Scott Ellis and
Craig Sanders) on debian-devel.
What options do we have in this regard. It would be fantastic if Deity
could automagically detect an upgrade from rex->bo, bo->hamm, or rex->hamm
and run the appropriate set of extra upgrade rules. I say "automagically"
because I have no idea how we could do this. (do we run a script like
Craig's? OR do we add extra logic into the deity code? How do we detect
such an upgrade? etc.)
Perhaps Deity should also start updating /etc/debian_version too.
Afterall, my all hamm system still says "1.3" in the /etc/debian_version
file. It would be great if that could be changed to "1.3 + hamm" or
something once hamm packages are installed on bo system.
Just some random thoughts while I was upgrading a Debian server...
