Hi Sean,

When I investigated using your configuration file suggestion, I
discovered a slew of debconf messages requesting that I select which
version of the config file to keep, confirmations about overwriting the
file, etc. If you are going for simple package installs for end users,
this doesn't appear to be the answer either.

You and I emailed recently discussing preseed options so packages using
dbconfig-common can be installed during a hands-free installation
(remote box, cloud instance, etc.). I was able to get it to work, but I
had to do a combination of preseeding and scripting in the packages
config script to get it functional. While it works for now, it is far
from elegant and I keep running into edge case bugs where the package is
previously installed, or partially installed or removed but not purged.

It would be nice to have the ability to preseed all dbconfig-common
messages away or at the very least be able to provide dbconfig-common a
starting default configuration that is *not* in the same location as the
one it generates itself.

Thanks for the hard work on this package!

Tony
