[Gllug] debian packaging question - env vars?

[Aaron Trevena]

Hi all,

Any debian packaging bods know if I could get any useful information
from %ENV when a makefile is executed when installing a debian
package?

We're deploying configuration files in debian packages, but would like
to backup before replacing files - ideally with a useful name linked
to either the change control ticket (not really feasible unless manual
- probably via a symlink) or the version of the package.

I suppose I could set this manually each time I update the package but
that's a bit sucky.

Any suggestions?

A.
