I'm not quite sure exactly what this code is supposed to do since
debconf_get will always return 0 unless the template doesn't exist:
if (debconf_get(debconf, DEBCONF_BASE "country") == 0)
// Not set yet. Seed with a default value
if ((debconf_get(debconf, "debian-installer/country") == 0) &&
(debconf->value != NULL) ) {
country = strdup (debconf->value);
debconf_set (debconf, DEBCONF_BASE "country", country);
}
} else {
country = debconf->value;
}
But according to the comments, I assume that it is supposed to set the value
of mirror/country to that of debian-installer/country iff it has not been set
already (e.g. by pre-seeding), so here is a patch to do that:
