[Pkg-roundcube-maintainers] Bug#655594: roundcube: preseeding not respected

[Daniel Baumann]

Package: roundcube
Version: 0.7-3

Hi,

if debconf frontend is set to noninteractive and priority to critical, 
and preseeding roundcube language e.g. like this *before* the package is 
installed:

   # echo roundcube-core roundcube/language select de_CH | 
debconf-set-selections

then the preseeding is not respected and the language default is used 
(en_US).

without having looked at it yet, this seems to be a problem in postinst 
or config where the language is unconditionally set to the default first.


when preseeding it again after the package was installed, and then 
running a dpkg-reconfigure, everything works as expected.

obviously, this is kind of unfortunate as it makes setting up servers 
noninteractively through preseeding impossible. please let me know if 
you need any more information.

Regards,
Daniel
