Package: debconf
Version: 1.4.30.13
Hello,
I am using a January debian sarge install (see attached txt file)
which today I upgraded to the latest versions for sarge. During the
configuration and re-configuration post upgrade I selected KDE as the
display (my desktop, which works without fault since I installed in
January). The configuration only appeared in the terminal, so I assumed
it was just a bug in that. But now I see the log below, which indicates
the problem debconf is having. any ideas how to fix this problem? Is it
a bug in debconf?
I expect Qt.pm is the gui component, but it probably did not install
that package even though it lets me select it from the list of options.
Which package is Qt.pm normally in?
Please include my email address in any replies.
Kind regards
JG

Comments/Problems:
/dev/fd0 missing, and cd/dvd writing not setup. CD/DVD writer is:
_NEC ' 'DVD_RW ND-2500A ' '1.06'.
This is an IDE model, which is on /dev/hda, I had to convert it to work as
/dev/scd0 to write cds.
