I see your point. Even better:
while true; ...
as both
while [ true ]; ...
and
while [ false ]; ...
evaluate to true :)

Mhm, line 72 is already
db_input high ntop/admin_password || true
so I guess you are talking about line 74
db_get ntop/admin_password
which can also return 30
(i.e. we have no value because the question was skipped).

When were you asked the question? While installing that same package?
On a previous installation? Same version or older version?
In this case db_get should have the value and not return 30...
Thank you for reporting the issue,
