 Stupid me, of course this should read -5 instead of -4.


Hmmm, the addition of set -e was meant to be a lintian cleaning
for the package while doing l10n updates (something I do very often
during such l10n uploads).

Apparently, the package was in a worse shape than I imaginedand
debconf stuff is not done in a standard way.

So, well, either I find the right fix quite quickly for this...or I
will re-hide the issue under the rug and just drop the set -e line.

At first glance, it seems that replacing all db_input foo/bar by
db_input foo/bar || true (in isdnutils-base.config, for instance)
could be what makes things work *without* set +e. Untested, though

Some other packages have been bitten by this recently (but I can't
remember the name) and the suggested fix was the same as the one you
suggested.

So I'd say: go ahead, can't become any worse.

Sven.
