test results from branches/debconf-overhaul
Hi Branden,
glad to see that most of the changes are working smoothly, but
there are a few things that we need to work on. That means that the branch
isn't ready to be merge in trunk yet and i am afraid that it will be part
of -8.
Upgrading from -6 to -6+SVN i have been warned 3 times that my
configuration has been customized. Probably one should be enough.
On fresh install (meaning a real purge of xserver-xfree86 and no
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4)
+ Make the "medium" monitor configuration interface the default
but it still defaults to Simple here.
mode-list templates is asked after unpacking.. weird.. it should still be
part of config.
Also the new comments in this template are ok, but they make the text too
long. On a normal console it will show only 2 lines to select from. It is
more a usability issue than anything else.. it works.
In postinst i am asked if i want to detect video hardware.. doh!
And the first time i answer the question, indipendently from the answer, i
will be prompted again. Only at the second time it will exit properly.
This behaviour is reproducible constantly so it should be pretty simple to
debug.

PS of course i will try to debug all the problems.. but this is more FYI
:-)

<fajita> When in danger or in doubt, step two is to scream and shout.
