Package: fuse-utils
Version: 2.2.1-4
Followup-For: Bug #307627
I'm not the original poster, but I can reproduce the bug and I can
answer some of the questions that were asked.
>What debconf priority do you use?
By searching /var/cache/debconf/config.dat, it seems that I have it
set at medium. I don't recall ever changing the priority, so medium
is probably the default value.
>Well I set all questions to priority medium to be sure that everyone will
>be asked for group deletion (#303954).
I wasn't asked. Here's some unedited shell dialogue showing what
happened. The name of the group in question is "private". If I want
to make it repeat this behavior, I have to give these commands between
one repetition and the next:
dpkg -P fuse-utils # So it asks the name of the group again
addgroup --gid 1006 private # So the group exists again.
lobus:/vast/tim/encfs# grep private /etc/group
private:x:1006:
lobus:/vast/tim/encfs# apt-get install fuse-utils
