--- Begin Message ---Package: netcfg It seems it's not possible to tell netcfg via preseeding that no gateway should be used. I thought this was possible but I cannot figure out how and the code suggests that it's not possible. joeyh made the following change in 2005 to allow preseeding: Index: static.c =================================================================== --- static.c (revision 28680) +++ static.c (revision 28681) @@ -132,7 +132,9 @@ ptr[1] = '\0'; } - debconf_set(client, "netcfg/get_gateway", ptr1); + debconf_get(client, "netcfg/get_gateway"); + if (empty_str(client->value)) + debconf_set(client, "netcfg/get_gateway", ptr1); return 0; } This sets netcfg/get_gateway to the calculated gateway if netcfg/get_gateway is empty. So when you preseed an empty value, the calculated gateway will be used. Wouldn't it make sense to check if the seen flag is set? -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/
