Package: dbconfig-common
Version: 1.8.46
Severity: important

When dbconfig-common is purged and reinstalled, it is no longer
working. Instead, one gets:

  "dbconfig-common not yet setup, deferring configuration."

I have reproduced this in a chroot environment:

  debootstrap squeeze ....

  mount -o bind /proc /local/debootstrap/squeeze-chroot/proc/
  mount -o bind /dev /local/debootstrap/squeeze-chroot/dev/

  schroot -c squeeze -u root

  aptitude update && \
  aptitude install less debconf-utils dbconfig-common apache2 \
  php5-cli php5-gd \
  postgresql php5-pgsql phppgadmin \
  mysql-server php5-mysql phpmyadmin \
  sqlite php5-sqlite

  aptitude install {phpbb3,serendipity,...} => no prob.

NOW:

  aptitude purge dbconfig-common

  aptitude install dbconfig-common

  aptitude install {phpbb3,serendipity,...}

=> /etc/dbconfig-common/{phpbb3,serendipity,...} = no data

(no database info is queried when dbc_go is run inside maintainer
scripts since the error mentioned above occurs)

  dpkg-reconfigure {phpbb3,serendipity,...}

also doesn't show any dbconfig-common configuration dialog.
Other debconf dialogs are working alright.

Thanks and regards,
JM

PS. Actually I install s9y using dpkg -i /serendipity-1.4..... since
it's only in unstable but that doesn't matter here.
