Package: debconf-doc
Version: 1.5.4
Severity: normal
The example config script in the section "Letting the user back up"
contains the following code:
if [ $STATE -eq 1 ]; then
# The user has asked to back up from the first
# question. This case is problematical. Regular
# dpkg and apt package installation isn't capable
# of backing up questions between packages as this
# is written, so this will exit leaving the package
# unconfigured - probably the best way to handle
# the situation.
exit 10
fi
In the first line of this code 1 should be replaced with 0 or else the
script will never exit with code 10.
