Re: pbuilder: How to get debconf interactive?



Hi,

* Frank K??ster <frank@kuesterei.ch> [2003-09-05 16:41]:
| to test debconf questions I would like to do installations, upgrades
| etc. in a pbuilder environment. However, debconf seems to be fixed to
| the noninteractive frontend. I can get something else by setting
| DEBIAN_FRONTEND, but even after 
| 
| DEBIAN_FRONTEND=dialog dpkg-reconfigure debconf
| 
| and choosing dialog (which was on the top anyway, IIRC) debconf stayed
| silent. I couldn't find any mention of debconf or confmodule in
| pbuilders manual page, the html documentation or the executables (even
| in /usr/lib/pbuilder).
| 
| Any ideas?

untested, but you can try to change the DEBIAN_FRONTEND variable in
/etc/pbuilderrc.

Bye
Thorsten
