Bug#238301: After installer has run many debconf questions are not seeded



Package: debian-installer
Version: As of 20040412
Severity: normal

During the installer run many packages (for example, setserial) appear
to get installed without their debconf configuration scripts being run.
This means that when the packages get upgraded they prompt for
configuration.

While this is probably mostly OK for a stable release since upgrades are
infrequent I can see this creating problems with security updates and
point releases as well which is probably undesirable.
