This is right, and I wasn't able to make it work this way too. > maybe someone else on the list has an idea how to get it to work? I have got a solution, horrible but works fine :) , just add in your profile/yourprofile.postinst file: #!/bin/bash dpkg-reconfigure -p low -f gtk yourpackage This way the package will still be installed with none Debian front-end, but by the time the postinst script is called this has changed and you are able to reconfigure the package and the debconf questions will be shown. If you find a "cleaner" way of solving this please let all us know. Kind regards, -- Matias S. Soler gnuler.blogspot.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
