I'm unable to reproduce this with 0.102 in a normal (ie. non-d-i) environment: trofast:~/nmu/cdebconf-0.102# rm /target/var/cache/debconf/* zsh: sure you want to delete all the files in /target/var/cache/debconf [yn]? y trofast:~# /usr/lib/cdebconf/debconf-copydb -p apache-common configdb target_configdb trofast:~# grep ^Name: /target/var/cache/debconf/templates.dat Name: apache-common/confignotes Name: apache-common/logs Name: apache-common/old-logrotate-exists trofast:~# /usr/lib/cdebconf/debconf-copydb -p acpi configdb target_configdb trofast:~# grep ^Name: /target/var/cache/debconf/templates.dat Name: acpid/modules Name: acpid/noacpi Name: apache-common/confignotes Name: apache-common/logs Name: apache-common/old-logrotate-exists configdb is here set up to be my normal debconf database (so I have some source data to test with), but I can't understand why this would work outside d-i but not from pkgsel... any ideas? /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
