Installing Debian-edu-config will not lead to a lot of configuration beeing modified. If so, there is a bug. Running base-config, will lead to some modification (maybe most, I dont remember). running cfengine-debian-edu will also lead to a lot of files beeing changed. > This could be preseeded by debian-edu fokes (right?) but give sutable > warning to others! I think Jonas also cares about upgrading, and upgrading an old installation and then running base-config could lead to unforeen results. > This is going to be a common problem for all CDD's (custom debian > distroes).

Until every package is preconfigurable, I think this is something we need, yes. -- Finn-Arne Johansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bzz.no/ Debian-edu developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
