Did that happen in "sudo lb build" or you just ran "sudo apt-get install
cups-pdf" in your computer? I ask that because when I said that this was
not supposed to happen I meant during the "sudo lb build" execution.
If you install mysql in your system as usual ("sudo apt-get install ..."), you'll be asked for debconf questions, but if you install with
export DEBCONF_FRONTEND=noninteractive && sudo -E apt-get install cups-pdf
then the debconf defaults should allow the package installation without
answering any question. I've just tried the line above, in sid:
miguel@quartor:~/$ export DEBCONF_FRONTEND=noninteractive && sudo -E apt-get install cups-pdf

No root password was asked here.
Also I've just tried building a squeeze build and could not reproduce
Robert's problem:
miguel@quartor:~/temp/$ mkdir teste
miguel@quartor:~/temp/$ cd teste
miguel@quartor:~/temp/teste$ lb config -d squeeze
miguel@quartor:~/temp/teste$ echo "cups-pdf" > config/package-lists/cups-pdf.chroot.list
miguel@quartor:~/temp/teste$ sudo lb build
...
...
...
miguel@quartor:~/temp/teste$ cat binary/live/filesystem.packages|grep cups-pdf
cups-pdf 2.5.0-16
miguel@quartor:~/temp/teste$
And I was not asked for any password during the non interactive
installation process.
>From reading the bugs reports I think the problem can be in the
configuration, if one is supplied. I didn't and all went well, even with
an older package that was installed (2.5.0-16).
All this is not a live-build problem, it's a package install problem or
with package configuration. See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/539156#5
and Debian policy "3.9.1 Prompting in maintainer scripts".
BTW, I wonder where 2.5.1-3 is. It's not in any squeeze repository, not
even in security. I suppose it never hit squeeze, just unstable (and
wheezy/testing). And I don't see cups-pdf in debian-backports:
http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-backports/20120809T213716Z/pool/main/c/
So the last resort solution for me to Robert's problem, is too backport
cups-pdf from wheezy to squeeze. If that's not possible, I'd try to
backport 2.5.1-3 source to squeeze, which _should_ be possible.
