We probably should ask all questions at the end once? Let dpkg/diety do something like this: 0. The question was already answered during an old install (and stored via dtxtdb or something better) -> take that answer 1a. Otherwise ask all questions at the end of the install. 1b. Better alternative, but I don't know whether this is feasible: Ask the questions at the beginning and configure the package just after install. This is better, since it minimizes the time window of unconfigured packages. This would require dpkg/diety to know what questions which package asks (new config file) David -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
