After a recent upgrade (testing distribution), Synaptic started showing
this message:
debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog
debconf: (TERM is not set, so the dialog frontend is not usable.)
debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline
for every package or upgrade being installed.
I do not get this message when running something like dpkg-reconfigure
from a terminal window.
Synaptic creates its own console window so I don't know how to set the
TERM environment variable. Is there some way to set it or is Synaptic
broken?
This happens on two different systems.
Thanks,
Chris.
