Subject: [Hampshire] Some dpkg questions...

Hi All.

I've got a couple of questions about dpkg that I'm not sure about (after
reading the man page...)

Firstly, dpkg apparently has a "--root" opetion; I'm not sure if I'm using
it properly. I tried :

dpkg --root=/mnt/image/ -L sysvconfig

And got nothing for my trouble (yet the apt log for that image says it's
installed).

Secondly - how do I list the scripts from a .deb?

Thanks!

Vic.
