Looking at the manual, "cf-agent -I" supposedly prints "basic information about changes made to the system, i.e. promises repaired".
Package promises don't seem to treat "-I" like this, though. The commands run due to package promises print their output (even in the case of my silent wrapper scripts they print the script name). I also get messages regarding verification (which is not a system change). Is there some way to make them output like other promises? Thanks, Ian An example of normal "-I" output: -> Created file /var/local/my_debconf_preferences.cf3_generated, mode = 600 -> Group of /var/local/my_debconf_preferences.cf3_generated was 50, setting to 0 -> Edited file /var/local/my_debconf_preferences.cf3_generated -> Edited file /var/local/my_debconf_preferences.cf3_generated -> Edited file /var/local/my_debconf_preferences.cf3_generated -> Edited file /var/local/my_debconf_preferences.cf3_generated -> Edited file /var/local/my_debconf_preferences.cf3_generated -> Edited file /var/local/my_debconf_preferences.cf3_generated An example of what happens when I uncomment my packages: promises.
