Package: debconf
Version: 1.5.59
File: /usr/share/man/man8/dpkg-reconfigure.8.gz

User sees

       If you just want to see the current configuration of a package, see
       debconf-show(1) instead.

User does

# debconf-show libc6
* glibc/restart-services: exim4 cron atd
  glibc/kernel-not-supported:
  glibc/restart-failed:
  glibc/disable-screensaver:
* libraries/restart-without-asking: false
* glibc/upgrade: true
  glibc/kernel-too-old:

User does
# dpkg-reconfigure libc6
#

So, kindly on the dpkg-reconfigure man page, mention how to reconfigure
[all!] the items shown by debconf-show! Thank you.
