Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: screen

after upgrading to jaunty, all my startup scripts that used screen via
'screen -d -m /some/script' stopped working.

this is probably due to new version of screen assuming it runs
interactivly and askes the user to supply a profile.

although i run screen manually both as me and as root and supplied a profile, 
the startup scripts still doesn't work.
there is also no command line option to tell screen which profile to use.
