Hi everyone !
That's it, after a month of testing on my main machine, I uploaded
cdebconf 0.159.
Time for me to switch..:-)
Oh, so I'll start breaking people's machine, now !
First glitch I had : I did setup DEBCONF_USE_CDEBCONF=1, then I ran
"dpkg-reconfigure samba" and.....I ended up with the "text" interface
and not the "newt" one.
Running "dpkg-reconfigure cdebconf" (which indeed defaulted to "newt"
for the interface) fixed the problem.
That's a bit odd, the initial setup and conversion is done in the
config
script, and I would have expected debconf to have already run it
before.
Unless I got it wrong with my almost empty postinst.
Other glitches will come later on (though I don't do much interactive
use of debconf as my laptop is mostly updated with apt-cron).
An obvious one for you should be the complete absence of i18n for
cdebconf itself. It would be nice if someone could review what I did
for
the frontend selection to make sure it's ok before marking the
templates
as translatable.
