Idea #8014
Updated by Brett Smith over 8 years ago
The SSO package packages already does this: the postinst script creates symbolic links in /var/www/arvados-sso/config to the corresponding file in /etc/arvados/sso, for files the user is expected to edit: application.yml, database.yml, production.rb. this. Follow the same pattern in the process of building the API and Workbench packages. Stop copying files from /etc Don't forget to /var/www, and instead set up symlinks in the postinst script. In order to make your changes effective, you'll need to increment the iteration of the two packages, or force a rebuild of the packages by making a noop commit to them in arvados. these packages.
