I have a problem without a clear solution. mdadm uses debconf-escape
in it's debconf config file and declares a dependency on debconf (>=
1.4.72), as that command is only available from that version on.
The problem is that apt-preconfigure runs long before APT even
worries about satisfying the versioned dependency on debconf.
Therefore, the configuration fails:
/tmp/mdadm.config.29435: line 1: debconf-escape: command not found
I see two solutions, but I don't know which one to use:
- implement my own debconf-escape and use it if the command is not
available
- pre-depend on debconf. I am not sure whether this is actually
going to cut the mustard.
Any advice?
