Please comment. Notes: The code might look too heavy/ugly in some places, but I wanted something that at least works and usually written up something according to the first idea that came into my mind; Also, since at the question of knowing a function a la log-output, but which sould act on all non-debconf questions, I had to add in multiple redirections to /dev/null because of the many commands which produced output on stdout in case of errors. -- Regards, EddyP ============================================= "Imagination is more important than knowledge" A.Einstein -- Regards, EddyP ============================================= "Imagination is more important than knowledge" A.Einstein
