I've spoken to Joey Hess about this problem in the past, and he says it's due to a .config script pushing a question on to the stack with db_input, but never popping it off with db_go. Therefore the next .config script to call db_go pops the other package's question off the stack. So I'd look for a bug in pump's .config. -- G. Branden Robinson | Q: How does a Unix guru have sex?
