In a fresh root shell (bash under urxvt):

Let's check

# cat /var/lib/adequate/pending
adequate

Interesting that this is still there; the file is from 16:50
localtime, probably when I reinstalled … Oh, I currently have 0.16.10
installed. 


Let's upgrade to 0.16.11.

/var/lib/adequate/pending is now empty and is from now().

bash has no job control any more …


New root shell.


# echo bash > /var/lib/adequate/pending
# debconf -oadequate -- adequate --debconf --pending

No output, no damaged shell apparently.
 
# echo bash > /var/lib/adequate/pending
# adequate --debconf --pending

bash lost job control.


Cheers,
gregor
