Hi list, I need some help with debconf, especially for the config and postinst scripts. I tried to craft my own ones for my font package and when I try to install the package the postinst script exits with status 10. What does this mean? Further more, the dialog I have created in config gets never displayed to the user... :(
I have attached the config, templates and postinst files. Can someone help me to review them and find the mistakes? Thanks Arne -- Arne GÃtje (éçè) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (Spam catcher.

Template: ttf-arphic-uming/variant Type: select Choices: Unicode, MBE, both Default: Unicode Description: Which font variant do you want to install? This font contains bopomofo extended glyphs, which are used to annotate chinese glyphs to show how the characters should be pronounced. These bopomofo extended glyphs are used for some minority languages, like Taiwanese and Hakka. They are mainly used in Taiwan. . There are two variants of these bopomofo extended glyphs in use, one which conformes to the Unicode standard, and one, called Modern Bopomofo Extensions (MBE), which aims to be easier to read and write. . The Unicode variant also contains the MBE variants encoded as TTF stylistic alternatives (SALT). As only few programs can support this feature, users who prefer to use the MBE glyphs should install the MBE variant instead of the Unicode one. . If you don't know what I'm talking about or don't intend to use those glyphs at all, choose Unicode.
