Hi all,

I've just fixed some things on dotlrn and openacs debian packages:

- Postgresql and daemontools are now "Suggested" dependencies instead of "Recommends", to avoid problems with aptitude.
- The installer grants access permissions on postgresql's pg_hba.conf automatically if the user wants to (only if postgresql is installed on localhost).
- Fixed some issues with dpkg-reconfigure.

Purging previous packages is recommended before installing the new ones. To purge and install:

# sudo apt-get clean
# sudo apt-get update
# sudo apt-get remove openacs | dotlrn --purge
# sudo apt-get install openacs | dotlrn

The database is not dropped on purge, so don't be afraid of doing it :)

Cheers, Héctor
