Package: anon-proxy
Version: 00.02.39-3
Severity: serious
If I manually modify the port number in etc/init.d/anon-proxy, and then
run dpkg-reconfigure anon-proxy, then it doesn't pick up my changes.
debconf is not a registry, you must really load the values from the
configfile before you even ask.
Also, you must not change /etc/init.d/anon-proxy with a script, and
therefore from debconf anyway.
Packages must not modify their own or other packages conffiles
programmatically. (The only correct way to modify a conffile is
the user running an editor specifically; if anything more automated
is required or useful, configuration files must _NOT_ be handled as
conffiles)
