Hi I want to configure some packages in the base-config script using the value of the two-letter country code (e.g: "us", "uk", "il").
The information is available in debconf. However the following command seems t give an indication that the debconf database is locked when run from a base-config script: country_answer=`echo GET debian-installer/country | debconf-communicate 2>/dev/null` case "$country" in 0*)country_lc=`echo $country_answer |sed -e 's/0 *//' | tr A-Z a-z`;; *) # debconf failed logger "could not get country name from debconf using 'en'" country_lc='en' ;; esac How can I read that value from debconf? -- Tzafrir Cohen +---------------------------+ http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir/ |vim is a mutt's best friend| mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +---------------------------+ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
