Bug#243790: openoffice.org-bin: Debconf complains during upgrade
Package: openoffice.org-bin
Version: 1.1.1-3
Severity: normal
Followup-For: Bug #243790
Hi,
I'm seeing the same happen on my system here, in fact it's been
happening throughout the last few openoffice.org upgrades but I assumed
it was a debconf problem which would get fixed in due course. It turns
out that debconf in question is working fine with the Readline frontend
(verified with dpkg-reconfigure debconf). Having found this bug I'm
attaching my installation information if it may be of any use.
