Package: cdebconf Version: 0.146 Severity: normal Perl dpkg-reconfigure runs the prerm upgrade and the postinst configure, so as to simulate a page upgrade and cause the reconfiguration to take effect. cdebconf is missing this. Also, perl dpkg-reconfigure has a nasty hack to detect prerm/postinst scripts using debconf, so as to avoid them starting another copy of debconf (which would contend with it writing to the DB). This might need to be brought over as well. -- 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.
