Package: dbconfig-common
Version: 1.8.46
Severity: important
When dbconfig-common is purged and reinstalled, it is no longer
working. Instead, one gets:
"dbconfig-common not yet setup, deferring configuration."
I have reproduced this in a chroot environment:
debootstrap squeeze ....
mount -o bind /proc /local/debootstrap/squeeze-chroot/proc/
mount -o bind /dev /local/debootstrap/squeeze-chroot/dev/
schroot -c squeeze -u root
aptitude update && \
aptitude install less debconf-utils dbconfig-common apache2 \
php5-cli php5-gd \
postgresql php5-pgsql phppgadmin \
mysql-server php5-mysql phpmyadmin \
sqlite php5-sqlite
aptitude install {phpbb3,serendipity,...} => no prob.
NOW:
aptitude purge dbconfig-common
aptitude install dbconfig-common
aptitude install {phpbb3,serendipity,...}
=> /etc/dbconfig-common/{phpbb3,serendipity,...} = no data
(no database info is queried when dbc_go is run inside maintainer
scripts since the error mentioned above occurs)
dpkg-reconfigure {phpbb3,serendipity,...}
also doesn't show any dbconfig-common configuration dialog.
Other debconf dialogs are working alright.
Thanks and regards,
JM
PS. Actually I install s9y using dpkg -i /serendipity-1.4..... since
it's only in unstable but that doesn't matter here.

Bug 779920 in debconf was recently fixed. This means that the
dbconfig-common bugs that were blocked by it are automatically fixed (as
they were not real dbconfig-common bugs but actually "clones" of 779920).
