Igor et al wrt post install scripts... :)

Would it be unreasonable to have some scripts which
are _never_ renamed to .done?  Doing that to the
/etc/postinstall/passwd-grp.sh script would have
caught his problem...

It might also solve the post install copying of
config files...?

Just a thought,

J.
