I ran software-center from the console, and I noticed this error: debconf: DbDriver "passwords" warning: could not open /var/cache/debconf/passwords.dat: access denied
Then I tried from scratch, by running ***sudo*** software-center And everything worked fine, the password questions were displayed. So I removed phpmyadmin from the Affects list and added software-center, the bug is either in software-center or in dbconfig-common. ** Also affects: software-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** No longer affects: phpmyadmin (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dbconfig-common in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/962393 Title: Installation loops in db-config-common when ran from software-center To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbconfig-common/+bug/962393/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
