The current behaviour of <replace ...> is to replace the placeholders with their respective values upon installation. While I understand that there are some values that are only known at installation time, there are placeholders that could already be replaced at packaging time (@package_version@, for instance). Is there a technical reason why this is not done? Thanks! -- Sebastian Bergmann http://www.sebastian-bergmann.de/ GnuPG Key: 0xB85B5D69 / 27A7 2B14 09E4 98CD 6277 0E5B 6867 C514 B85B 5D69
