-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Package: xserver-xorg Version: 1:7.0.22
I'm building a new debootsrap system, and if i try to configure it with dpkg-reconfigure, it doesn't write xorg.conf file. With a "set - -x" i have traced the /var/lib/dpkg/info/xserver-xorg.postinst and when i took a look to it, i've understood it was an "update", but as long as my xorg.conf file is clean (blank file), he won't upgrade anything and the xorg.conf file will continue blank... Then i needed to "confuse" the script, exactly on the line 1669: # here's a new concept: DON'T TOUCH THE CONFIG ON UPGRADES if [ -z "$UPGRADE" ] || dpkg --compare-versions "$2" le "1:7.0.14"; then i had to change the version 1:7.0.14 to 1:7.0.22 so deboostrap will skip upgrading a file that has nothing (blank), but writing instead a real file from your config or debconf After that, i also needed to run this: touch /etc/X11/xorg.conf md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf > /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum to accept the MD5SUM verification Well, i know that this bug is a little "riddled" and it can be produced by different things. IMHO my recomm. is simply this... before all, have a look to xorg.conf file, and see if it exists. if it doesn't, "touch it" and generate the new md5sum verification (same to my 2 last commands), and then, DO NOT use the "upgrade" way when is called on the postinst script (same to the thing explained first) If any question about this, just email me Thanatermesis - -- Do you want a new Linux experience ?
