Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.2.1-14
Severity: normal
Although 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86' is mentioned as the
preferred way to change X settings, when XF86Config-4 is being managed
by debconf, this command actually MAKES NO CHANGE to the configuration
used by the X server. dpkg-reconfigure re-runs
/var/lib/dpkg/info/xserver-xfree86.config, as far as I can tell,
while the actually rewrite of XF86Config-4 occurs in
/var/lib/dpkg/info/xserver-xfree86.postinst which (as far as I can tell)
is *not* invoked by dpkg-reconfigure. I might have the mechanism
slightly wrong: I'm not a dpkg expert. But the outcome (whatever the
means) is certain: XF86Config-4 is not regenerated by dpkg-reconfigure.
Even if the file is removed, dpkg-reconfigure makes no output.
Running
dexconf -o /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
manually after dpkg-reconfigure does the trick.
