As I originally said, I consider the package dependency ordering solution both the permanent and sufficient solution. I always considered script dependencies short term, but if there are still issues (now that the package dependency solution is 'doing the right thing') I'm happy to discussion addressing that by either script depends or tweaks to the package ordering.... I had a brain storm BTW: my shells not great, but this should give the idea #!/bin/sh if [test -e /etc/postinstall/myprerequisite.sh] /bin/sh /etc/postinstall/myprerequisite.sh mv /etc/postinstall/myprerequisite.sh /etc/postinstall/myprerequisiste.sh.done fi ... I'm not sure whether this is good or bad... :}. Rob -- GPG key available at: <http://users.bigpond.net.au/robertc/keys.txt>.
