No, d-i is not supposed to be an area where seen flags are set.
cdebconf (0.58) unstable; urgency=low
- The previous fix about the seen flag broke when a package is
left half-configured. To prevent this problem, the seen
flag is never written to the questions.dat file (for cdebconf-udeb
only) as suggested by Joey Hess. Closes: #229648
Seen flags are still being properly ignored when a udeb is successfully
configured. For example, one can go back to the main menu and change
language, and is re-prompted with the language question.
Also, if I make a menu item such as user-setup ask a question and later fail,
I repeatedly selecting it shows the question each time. So bug #229648
has not reocurred.
So I suspect this bug is specific to the passthrough frontend -- notice
that both examples given, tasksel and grub-setup, use passthrough. Likely,
seen flags are being set in /target.
