Package: debconf Version: 1.4.30.13 Severity: minor Tags: patch The "Config file handling" example config script contains an error:
if [ -e $CONFIGFILE ]; then
. $CONFIGFILE || true
# Store values from config file into
# debconf db.
db_set mypackage/foo FOO
db_set mypackage/bar BAR
fi
FOO should actually be $FOO, same for BAR.
The attached patch fix this issue for the english and french manpage.
