You're quite right, unfortunately. It looks like I forgot to put the debconf installation check around a call to db_stop in the postinst. I've just uploaded 1.2.3-7 to non-us's incoming, which should install without debconf being around. It's also available here: http://www.hands.com/~phil/debian/openssh/ssh_1.2.3-7_i386.deb Please test it. Cheers, Phil. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
