Yes, that's my understanding; likewise, if the user previously answered yes but then removed the file manually, the dialog should say no. See also http://lintian.debian.org/tags/debconf-is-not-a-registry.html and debconf-devel(7), which mentions this matter in the context of using debconf outside maintainer scripts: You can also use debconf in other, standalone programs. The issue to watch out for here is that debconf is not intended to be, and must not be used as a registry. This is unix after all, and programs are config- ured by files in /etc, not by some nebulous debconf database (that is only a cache anyway and might get blown away). So think long and hard before using debconf in a standalone program. -- Aaron M.
