Hello,
It seems the issue is merely that:
/* always always always default back to autoconfig, unless you've specified
* disable_autoconfig on the command line. */
debconf_get(client, "netcfg/disable_autoconfig");
if (!strcmp(client->value, "true"))
debconf_set(client, "netcfg/use_autoconfig", "false");
else
debconf_set(client, "netcfg/use_autoconfig", "true");
/* also support disable_dhcp for compatibility */
debconf_get(client, "netcfg/disable_dhcp");
if (!strcmp(client->value, "true"))
debconf_set(client, "netcfg/use_autoconfig", "false");
else
debconf_set(client, "netcfg/use_autoconfig", "true");
netcfg/disable_autoconfig has no effect of course, since
netcfg/disable_dhcp gets over it in all cases.
I have dropped the else part here, so disable_dhcp only has effect if
set to the non-default "true".

Yes, all these get overriden by disable_dhcp.

Yes, that one gets the last word, whatever is before. That should now
be fixed in the git tree, so disable_autoconfig will really be the right
way. Until that gets uploaded you can use the disable_dhcp compatibility
debconf.

It's actually 1.101 which brought the regression.

use_autoconfig shouldn't have to be set to false. Both disable_dhcp (for
squeeze and earlier) and disable_autoconfig (for wheezy and later)
should be enough alone.
I have uploaded a fixed version on:
http://dept-info.labri.fr/~thibault/tmp/mini.iso
Could you check that just netcfg/disable_autoconfig=true works for you
too?
