Debian 4.86.1 beta

[Jerry Benton]

How about I add this to the debian postinst? This would catch any custom items created that reference the old /etc/default/mailscanner



# update any cron jobs that reference old files
for file in /etc/cron.hourly/*
do
	OLD='\/etc\/default\/mailscanner';
	NEW='\/etc\/default\/MailScanner';
	sed -i "s/${OLD}/${NEW}/g" $file
done;

# update any cron jobs that reference old files
for file in /etc/cron.daily/*
do
	OLD='\/etc\/default\/mailscanner';
	NEW='\/etc\/default\/MailScanner';
	sed -i "s/${OLD}/${NEW}/g" $file
done;

# update any cron jobs that reference old files
for file in /etc/cron.weekly/*
do
	OLD='\/etc\/default\/mailscanner';
	NEW='\/etc\/default\/MailScanner';
	sed -i "s/${OLD}/${NEW}/g" $file
done;

# update any cron jobs that reference old files
for file in /etc/cron.monthly/*
do
	OLD='\/etc\/default\/mailscanner';
	NEW='\/etc\/default\/MailScanner';
	sed -i "s/${OLD}/${NEW}/g" $file
done;
