debconf makes dpkg-divert errors.



Howdy,...
in the next scrinario apt-get will make dpkg diverisons and will mass up your system .

{
debconf is on kde.
the X is not allwaing root to connect /the X is off.
}

if you try installing some packages that have to be configure debconf will faill to configure and apt-get will not install the package .
but it will continue till the rest of the instaltion progress.
because of that dpkg-divert will add diversions (if needed by the  script).

to fix it :
change the default debconf dialog to "dialog".
list all diversions of a disaerd package
[CODE]
dpkg-divert --list package.
[/CODE]

erase the diversions:
[CODE]
dpkg-divert --rename --remove "put here the filename that you got by --list"
[/CODE]
