No, you aren't. It's in /usr/share/debconf/confmodule, but because of the way that works you won't be able to simply grep for it. > I wondered if there's something with the 'GNU database manager' > - curiously, also a 'gdm' ! No. Did you see the 'Please be sure to run "dpkg --configure <something>"' message? Look in /var/lib/dpkg/info/gdm2.templates. If you find a template with daemon_name on its Template: line, then I'd bet that you need to run /usr/share/debconf/fix_db.pl (but take a copy of everything in /var/cache/debconf first, as you'll probably want to file a bug report against debconf). If you don't find such a template, then it's a bug in the gdm2 package. -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
