How to check debconf scripts

[Andreas Tille <tillea@rki.de>]

Hello,

in the debconf tutorial i've read that I can check the script by
caling it before installing the whole package.  Obviousely I
have to do this as root because of errors when calling as user.
So I called it as root.  Some changes in the script where necessary
and I did so (what else would you expect from a bloody beginner?).
Unfortunately calling the changed script as root does nothing.

I suspect, that this has something to do with storing some data
about the script in a database which means it was run once and
doesn't has to be run now.  How can I enforce the script to run.

Didn't I read the tutorial right?

Kinr regards

         Andreas.
