I initially thought so too. But I tried it and it didn't work so I
didn't mention it. :-(
# dpkg-reconfigure libc6
Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.19-13) ...
I think that is because the postinst script deals with it is protected
inside an 'if' checking for an upgrade. Since a dpkg-reconfigure is
never an upgrade it never hits that section.
preversion=$2
...
if dpkg --compare-versions "$preversion" lt 2.13; then
...stuff...
Note that I didn't actually trace through a script run so I might be
looking at the wrong section. But regardless it doesn't actually work.
