[Pkg-roundcube-maintainers] Bug#476803: Debconf use is utterly broken

Package: roundcube
Version: 0.1.1-1

Roundcube uses debconf to fetch proper database settings. This is broken in
several ways:
- The questions do not make use of preseeded values. In fact it seems that only
  roundcube/hosts is honored, all others are ignored (including
  roundcube/language)
- If, in contrast to the defaults, mysql over tcp/ip is configured (this may
  apply to other non-defaults as well) via debconf answers entered by the users,
  this is completely ignored, the options never end up in
  /etc/roundcube/debian-db.php

It would be cool if you could fix this, it would make a very nice package a bit
easier to administrate.

Thanks,
Michael
