I did, yes, since piuparts requires this. The debconf warning is priority high. critical might be more suitable. It would also be a good idea to just display something to stdout (using echo), so this would be displayed even with the noninteractive frontend. Additionnally, it would be great if there was a noninteractive-like debconf frontend that would display what is being answered automatically. I'll file a wishlist bug. Thank you for your time, and sorry for the noise :) -- | Lucas Nussbaum | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lucas-nussbaum.net/ | | jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG: 1024D/023B3F4F | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
