config files
Hello,
what is the best way to
1. automatically prompt the user for configuration information
2. store this in a config file in such a way that any customizations
the user may have made are not lost
3. allow for changes by the upstream maintainer.
If have looked at debconf, but this only seems to solve 1.
I am sure I have seen ideas on 2 and 3, but can't seem to find them
now.
If nothing has been standardised, I will invent my own method (I have
some good ideas on how to do this), but thought this was a common
situation...
