Public bug reported:
Release of Ubuntu: Raring 13.04
Package Version: 2.5ubuntu1
Expected Results: rcconf should run in Ubuntu by default because whiptail is
installed
Actual Results: rcconf fail to run, people is forced to install dialog to make
it run
whiptail changed its path since ubuntu precise:
newt (0.52.11-2ubuntu10) precise; urgency=low
* Move libnewt to /lib and whiptail to /bin so they can be used by
friendly-recovery on systems that have a separate /usr.
rcconf have a hardcoded path to whiptail who points out to
/usr/bin/whiptail , in Ubuntu it's in /bin/whiptail, therefore a rcconf
change needs to be done in order to find whiptail and avoid installing
dialog, which is not necessary since rcconf works fine with the ubuntu
whiptail version.
