Help/Support How to add a postinst & postrm file to a project?

Thanks! So I'm going to have to manually package the .deb because theos doesn't seem to work with it?

I just do it this way all the time

I've tried adding the postinst in /_/DEBIAN/ but when compiling with theos, it gets removed.

Only put it in debian when you package the deb manually. Otherwise just in your projects folder

Putting it in the root of the project folder doesn't work also. Looks like packaging the deb manually is required for this to work.

Nope.

Rename postinst to postinst.c and add to your Makefile

TOOL_NAME = postinst

postinst_FILES = postinst.c 
postinst_CFLAGS += -fvisibility=hidden -DBUILD_POSTINST -DBUILD_RUNONCE
postinst_FRAMEWORKS = CoreFoundation
postinst_INSTALL_PATH = /DEBIAN

Did you try that? Did it work for you?

Make it into a deb using the dpkg command or make package?
