Package: base-config
Version: 2.45
Severity: important
/usr/lib/base-config/menu/finish calls itself with
$0 debconf 0
if no display manager is to be started, or
$0 debconf 1
if a display manager is to be done.
However, switching against $1, the debconf) option has:
ask_dm="$1"
if [ "$ask_dm" ]; then
<Ask about display manager>
fi
<This code returns failure if no display manager was chosen but
the above stanza was run.>
Now here, $1 is "debconf" not the "1" or "0" it is obviously
meant to be checking for. _Also_, changing to
ask_dm="$2"
doesn't work since
[ "0" ]
is _true_.
I think what was meant is:
ask_dm="$2"
if [ $ask_dm -eq 1 ]; then
<Same code here for choosing a display manager to run>
fi
<Same>
The same
if [ "$ask_dm" ]; then
...
fi
stanza appears later on in the debconf) section.
This actually occurred to me in 2.40.5 (from Testing), but I've
just looked and the code is the same.
