Also of note, the topogolical order of _update... is not last - the script is update-info-dir.sh. Lastly, the dependencies are actually reversed: foo depends on bar, means that bar must install and run it's postinstall script before foo. So, conceptually, the updater should depend on the packages it updates, not the other way around. Thats a larger change though, and one the approach we use (install all files, then run scripts) doesn't require it in this case. Rob
