Version: 1.13.19
Severity: normal
In the locally-modified-conffile menu, the Z ("background this process to
examine the situation") option no longer works: it just redisplays the
menu. Here is a sample:
-----Begin copied text-----
Configuration file `/etc/default/smartmontools'
==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : background this process to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** smartmontools (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? z
Don't forget to foreground (`fg') this process when you're done !
