Package: tex-common
Version: 0.22
Severity: important
(see title). Once I've chosen it, it should not keep asking me what
group I want. Especially when I've not chosen the default value (this is
the case on one of my computers, where it still keeps asking me the same
question again and again).
I suggest that you don't db_ask for the tex-common/groupname if it has
been set.
severity important, because it's near debconf abuse (which is IIRC
RC).
Cheers,
