The point I was trying to make (and failed) was that specifying
-plow/--priority=low is a waste of keystrokes and accomplishes nothing.
The -p/--priority= option is meant to force dpkg-reconfigure to *not*
show lower level questions.
For example there may be situations where one wants to reconfigure a
package, but only cares about questions of priority high or critical
(i.e. the questions asked during normal installation of the package).
The invocation would be:
dpkg-reconfigure --priority=high <package>
Hope this explains,
Andrei
