This bug wasn't a bug in debian. In debian dbconfig-common works properly (version 1.8.29, 1.8.30 etc...). This bug affects ubuntu because ubuntu has some different shell (sh/bash/dash) settings.
Debian changelog for 1.8.33 says: " * include a long-neglected fix from Adam Lebsack, which seems to fix the problems prevents dbconfig-common from working with dash (closes: #406127). this was also likely the cause of dbconfig appearing to attempt creating the database/user in the wrong order (closes: #418479)." And this is also fix for bug in ubuntu. -- dbconfig-common cannot create database for package https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/113310 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
