tag 742602 wontfix
severity 742602 minor
thanks

Hi Axel,

since there where no comments from Patrick or Lucas howto proceed I've decided to:

- don't change anything for now => tag wontfix
- the bug does not make one of the packages unusable IMHO => severity minor


HTH,
Thomas

Hi,

a minor correction:

99-localepurge only outputs a few lines, so it's only a minor issue if
it runs after how-can-i-help. Feel free to clone this bug report against
localepurge,how-can-i-help if think this is worth being fixed, too.

if I understand aright the problem is that how-can-i-help just put it's
output directly on the tty (not using debconf magic or a pager). Which
debconf frontend are you using?

It sounds like a general problem with any hook script running after
hcih's hook. I'd put needrestart in the 99th row as there might be other
hooks restarting binaries - although I didn't check if there are any.

We could change the hook naming in needrestart, but depending on other's
package hook names sounds fragile to me. A more generic solution might
be changing hcih's hook name to be almost the last called hook
(z9how-can-i-help?) or use the debconf frontend (although this requires
user interaction to proceed).


HTH,
Thomas
