Public bug reported: Binary package hint: checkbox
Running apt-get update && apt-get upgrade on my Alpha 4 amd64 desktop this evening yielded this little gem - checkbox whined about the package's config file not passing debconf's validation. Setting up checkbox (0.5) ... *** WARNING: ucf was run from a maintainer script that uses debconf, but the script did not pass --debconf-ok to ucf. The maintainer script should be fixed to not stop debconf before calling ucf, and pass it this parameter. For now, ucf will revert to using old-style, non-debconf prompting. Ugh! Please inform the package maintainer about this problem. Configuration file `/etc/checkbox.d/checkbox.ini' ==> File on system created by you or by a script. ==> File also in package provided by package maintainer. What would you like to do about it ? Your options are: Y or I : install the package maintainer's version N or O : keep your currently-installed version D : show the differences between the versions S : show the side-by-side differences between the versions Z : start a new shell to examine the situation The default action is to keep your current version. *** checkbox.ini (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? Not having a clue what this meant I used Ctrl + C to quit that and come back to it later.
