| Resolved | Privacybatm | T257599 Create temp and config directories at the installation time of transferpy deb package |
Change 612162 had a related patch set uploaded (by Privacybatm; owner: Privacybatm):
[operations/software/transferpy@master] transferpy: Create required directories at the time of deb installation
Change 612162 merged by jenkins-bot:
[operations/software/transferpy@master] transferpy: Create required config directory at the time of deb installation
We agreed temp cannot be created at install time as the temp directories are created on the remote hosts, not the place where the package is installed.
