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. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
