After installation, i ran dpkg-reconfigure gitolite, set the
"adminkey" directly to a pubkey in my ~/.ssh/ with full path, and
debconf ended silently (without initializing my gitolite-admin repo).
It seems that the process trying to initialize it is owned by
"gituser" and couldn't access my 600'ed pubkey.
The initialize is run with the git user indeed - but the key should had
got copied away earlier with proper permissions for that user. Actually
a reconfigure to the same user isn't able to add another admin key -
this is planned. If you would have reconfigured to a different user and
a different directory that should have worked.
I promised too much. Reconfiguring to the same user and directory won't
add another admin key. This would mean that it would tweak the
gitolite.conf in a special way and commit that to the admin repository.
Please use the inital admin key to add additional admin keys/users,
that's the way it's mean to be.
So long,

I think you misunderstood my bug report, i wasn't trying to add another
admin key nor modify an existent one, my gitolite's user homedir
(/var/lib/gitolite) was *completely empty* (because the default
debconf's "high" priority level skipped all the questions when I
installed it), and i wanted to *initialize it* running dpkg-reconfigure
(to set my first admin key), which failed silently without setting my
gitolite-admin repo or copying my first admin key.
Weird, but if I provide exactly the same configuration to debconf at
installation (lowering debconf's default priority level), it installs
smoothly, I just tested it in a VM. Basically it isn't possible to
dpkg-reconfigure after installation even though gitolite's user homedir
is empty.
Hope this help, i just wanted to make it clear for future reference.
Thanks for your time.
Cesar
