I don't get this message when using pkcon, so I figured it might be
interesting to compare the different environments debconf-kde-helper
runs in when invoked by each of those.
When invoked by pkcon, it has access to a whole load of environment variables.
When invoked by aptdcon, it only sees the following:
DEBCONF_DB_OVERRIDE=Pipe{infd:none outfd:none}
DISPLAY=:0
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=kde
QT_LOGGING_RULES=org.kde.debconf.debug=false
PWD=/home/niklas
DEBCONF_DB_REPLACE=configdb
I'm a bit confused on how this came to be as
DebconfProxy._get_debconf_env copies os.environ first. But I couldn't
figure out where this function was really called from.
So, one possible solution would be to pass at least $HOME and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
(I'm not exactly sure how kconfig determines where to place the config file,
but I guess it's these two.)
Or just pass the whole environment.
