====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- paul - 19-Mar-07 09:06 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Lars, This won't roll. The postinst files for postgres and mysql should never touch the dbmail.conf file. That was a delibirate decision. It is perfectly valid to install dbmail-pgsql on a running dbmail-mysql or dbmail-sqlite system and vice versa. You don't want a silent change of the production backend under those circumstances. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- lkneschke - 19-Mar-07 09:41 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello Paul! Ok, but how can we fix it? :-) Having everything configurable from debconf just not the database backend looks a little bit incomplete for me? Should we move the debconf settings to dbmail.postinst(aka Please select database backend)? My points of view. I want to have preconfiguration of debian packages working. This is currently not possible, because you still need to edit the dbmail.conf file. If i decide to use debconf, i would expect it changing the database backend. Because i would install dbmail-mysql or dbmail-postgresql. If someone likes to have both database backends available, then he would not use debconf anyway. Just points... :-) Lars Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 19-Mar-07 08:00 lkneschke New Issue 19-Mar-07 09:06 paul Note Added: 0001921 19-Mar-07 09:06 paul Assigned To => paul 19-Mar-07 09:06 paul Status new => acknowledged 19-Mar-07 09:06 paul Resolution open => won't fix 19-Mar-07 09:41 lkneschke Note Added: 0001922 ====================================================================== _______________________________________________ Dbmail-dev mailing list Dbmail-dev@dbmail.org http://twister.fastxs.net/mailman/listinfo/dbmail-dev
