Uups, yes. Up to the last version, we had an unconditional db_fset tex-common/groupname seen false || true in debian/config, and I just removed this, and hoped the problem would be solved. However, later on I split the question and show either groupname_single or groupname_multi, and hence the question is "new" and shown again. > severity important, because it's near debconf abuse (which is IIRC > RC). I think RC is too much, but I agree with important. Anyway, do you think that it's necessary to care for people who upgrade only rarely, and upload 0.23 with db_fget tex-common/groupname seen if [ "$RET" = true ]; then db_fset tex-common/groupname_single seen db_fset tex-common/groupname_multi seen fi or do you think that we can just ignore this? Hm, maybe rather not, since testing users already have answered it once, and would be asked again if 0.22 enters etch.
