It appears that the problem I'm experiencing occurs at the end
of /usr/share/debconf/frontend where the program reads
1 while ($confmodule-communicate);
After this line executes, $confmodule-exitcode is set to 1 and
this is then returned to the calling shell script, which then
returns failure.

I don't understand what the problem is here.
Everything is working as it is supposed to. The product by

'/'. The '/' operator is evaluated left to right.

Validating the data is pretty easy. The only data is the rate and it
is supposed to be a floating point number. Switching to https is easy too.
The attached patch does both.
Is it enough?

Note that the man page is not the primary manual, but a hacked output
for people that really like a man page. So we adjusted the hack and I

Everything is working as it should. I think you want tempF(68) and

We have pondered the matter of listing all the units that have the
same value as a given unit, and we're not feeling like this is a
particularly useful capability. For the most part, units tend to be
defined twice, once in a full name form and once in an abbreviated
form, and both definitions are
This idea goes beyond the scope of units. We are not going to attempt
to implement natural language parsing or output. This wishlist idea
can be closed.

The proposed option gives invalid/incorrect results. The value of 1
mile is not in fact 1609.334---the "m" is an essential part of the
result. If you want the bare number you can do
factor=$(units --terse 1mi m)
