</span>That's easy. Just inform the package manager of your intentions:<br>
<br>
$ dpkg-divert --divert /usr/bin/mythmetadatalookup.orig --rename<br>
/usr/bin/mythmetadatalookup<br>
<br>
That will instruct any package trying to install<br>
/usr/bin/mythmetadatalookup to instead install it to<br>
/usr/bin/mythmetadatalookup.orig. Your symlink won't get clobbered.<br>

<br></blockquote></div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">When I looked for a solution for disabling full screen fanart, I found two options. I could have just unset or changed permissions on the fanart directory, or modified the theme. I was modifying the theme anyway, so I found and removed all of the places where the full screen fanart was loaded. Option two is not friendly to upgrades, but option one should work. It is worth noting that option one may continually log errors every time it tries to add new fanart.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">-Tom</div></div>
