Hi Vincent, Thanks for your really quick reply.

Here is my preseed file: > [...] I'm missing one important answer in this preseeding: # Configure database for roundcube with dbconfig-common? roundcube-core roundcube/dbconfig-install boolean The answer must obviously be yes, because otherwise it doesn't put any useful information into debian-db.php at all (only dbuser and dbname will be set). Actually I would have guessed that I don't want to use dbconfig because I'd prefer to set up the database myself, but anyway: ================================================================= corn:/# debconf-get-selections | grep roundcube corn:/# cat bla roundcube-core roundcube/mysql/method select tcp/ip roundcube-core roundcube/dbconfig-reinstall boolean false roundcube-core roundcube/purge boolean false roundcube-core roundcube/language select de_DE roundcube-core roundcube/db/dbname string roundcube roundcube-core roundcube/remote/newhost string 127.0.0.2 roundcube-core roundcube/remote/port string 3319 roundcube-core roundcube/restart-webserver boolean false roundcube-core roundcube/install-error select ignore roundcube-core roundcube/mysql/admin-user string root roundcube-core roundcube/hosts string ssl://dummy.test:993 roundcube-core roundcube/database-type select mysql roundcube-core roundcube/remote/host select 127.0.0.2 roundcube-core roundcube/db/app-user string roundcube corn:/# debconf-set-selections < bla corn:/# apt-get -y -q install roundcube-mysql roundcube-core roundcube Reading package lists...

Of course I don't actually have a server named dummy.test and the like, but dbconfig is not really making use of this, but rather attempts to connect to the local socket, which doesn't exist (because I don't have a local mysqld here). > Because of some black magic in config, roundcube/language gets ignored > when preseeded. I will try to fix this one. So, well, let me try to refine my report: - Preseeding does work, apart from the language, which you have fixed in SVN already. - The configuration of a remote mysql server, however, seems not to work. Then, this is not actually the work of roundcube, but rather dbconfig-common, which is doing this work. I will thus clone and reassign this bug, leaving the original bug for the locale-reconfiguration problem. Thanks again for your quick response, Michael
