--- Begin Message ---Package: nodm Version: 0.13-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Dear maintainer, nodm.postinst should not write to stdout, since messages written to stdout may confuse debconf. See the following snippnet from debconf-devel(7) man page[1]: Avoid outputting anything to stdout in your postinst, since that can confuse debconf, and postinst should not be verbose anyway. Output to stderr is ok, if you must.
