If you want to force a message to be displayed no matter whether the user has seen it before, you're into a whole different style of debconf programming involving the 'seen' flag. Be very careful when you use this that the question is not displayed twice to people upgrading with apt (once when preconfiguring and once when configuring). -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
