Does anyone know what function/package does the prompting for replacing
configuration files during an upgrade? Any one
know how to automate the answers. Here is an example
Configuration file `/etc/exim4/conf.d/auth/30_exim4-config_examples'
==> Deleted (by you or by a script) since installation.
==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : background this process to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** 30_exim4-config_examples (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?
I am getting the same message for exim4, php.ini, sysctl.conf, cupsysd.conf and
ntp.conf.
I am looking for a way to automate the answers.
