Hi,
The french man page for base-config states you can call "base-config
[nouveau]", but the only supported spelling is "new", this is not
translated to "nouveau" in the source:
# Get the parameter past the script invocation.
if [ -z "$NEW" ] && [ "$1" =3D new ]; then
NEW=3D$1
fi
Additional problem: you can pass whatever you want as a parameter to
base-config, no error will be reported, even if the parameter has no
meaning. I think this is wrong too.
Regards,

* Correct overzealous translation of French man page. Closes: #279215

Closes: #278566
* Unset all seen flags for questions from tzsetup and apt-setup on upgrade
to this version, since they used to be set after the programs ran and the
new programs do not really deal with that. Note that since this was also
fixed in 2.53.1 in the sarge branch, the postinst looks for that version
number.
