/me looking at Debconf::Client::ConfModule
the above seems as easy as doing (untested):
use Debconf::Client::ConfModule ':all';
subst('kernel-package/postinst_ramdisk', 'key_ramdisk', $ramdisk);
...
input('high', 'kernel-package/postinst_ramdisk_verbose_output');
my @ret = go();
my $answer = get('kernel-package/postinst_ramdisk_verbose_output');
if ($answer =~ /^yes$/i) {
...
}
I'll look at it further, now.
