I just imagined someone doing # dpkg-reconfigure exim4 # compared to # dpkg-reconfigure exim4 Please use dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config instead! # However, although this looks simple and short, it doesn't take into account the various possible ways to access debconf, and it won't work at all if a package manager has a "reconfigure this package" button.
