Package: ntop Version: 3:4.0.3+dfsg1-1 Severity: normal in the postinst the loop test while [ 1 ] I prefer while [ true ]; . In shell true is 0 not 1. I don't know for [] ie "test" command but I guess it is the same.
the postinst fails with an status error 30 on my station. This comes from : db_input high ntop/admin_password line 72 which I replaced by db_input high ntop/admin_password || true . Which fixes the issue and let ntop configure properly. This one could be a local issue but I was already asked the question via dialog Even if my debconf is configured for gnome, it fails back to dialog when run through ssh. Here the debconf returns 30 on db_get for the above entry. I don't know debconf enough to know what this means or if the password ought to be asked again even when already asked twice in a previous configure run. But it returns this error status.
