Package: cdebconf Version: 0.146 Severity: normal perl debconf, in the "frontend" program, has complicated probing that figures out the package whose postinst script is being run, and loads the corresponding templates file and runs the corresponding config script first. (Etc.) cdebconf is missing all that ugliness. It is not needed in d-i, because udpkg kindly loads the templates, and udebs don't have config scripts. But, to replace perl debconf, all that nastiness needs to be replicated in cdebconf. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages cdebconf depends on: ii debconf 1.5.27 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.9-19 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdebian-installer4 0.63 Library of common debian-installer ii libnewt0.52 0.52.10-4 Not Erik's Windowing Toolkit - tex ii libslang2 2.1.4-3 The S-Lang programming library - r ii libtextwrap1 0.1-8 text-wrapping library with i18n - cdebconf recommends no packages.
