Indeed thanks for reporting. I implemented the proper solution for this, but made an extremely stupid copy/paste error, (see dpkg/common line 233 and down) for the dbc_dbname lines: # Turns out we cannot fully... According to the documentation # package maintainers can provide several variables in their config. if [ "$dbc_dbuser" ] ; then _tmp_dbuser="$dbc_dbuser" ; fi if [ "$dbc_basepath" ] ; then _tmp_basepath="$dbc_basepath" ; fi if [ "$dbc_dbname" ] ; then _tmp_dbuser="$dbc_dbname" ; fi dbc_read_package_debconf if [ ! "$dbc_dbuser" ] ; then dbc_dbuser="$_tmp_dbuser" ; fi if [ ! "$dbc_basepath" ] ; then dbc_basepath="$_tmp_basepath" ; fi if [ ! "$dbc_dbname" ] ; then dbc_dbuser="$_tmp_dbname" ; fi I am working on improving the CI tests. I will try to remember to include this as well. > Any chance you are at DebConf for a beer? :) Sure. I have a BOF about dbconfig-common [1] where you for sure can find me. Paul [1] https://summit.debconf.org/debconf15/meeting/190/using-dbconfig-common/
