Package: zabbix-frontend-php
Version: 1:1.1-4
Severity: important

Hello,

Installing zabbix-server-mysql, which pulled in the frontend
automatically, the frontend package got unpacked and set up before the actual
server and started prompting me for MySQL database access configuration
(which hadn't been defined yet). 

In addition to that, I fail to see how the user can know the
MySQL password if he/she tells the server package to generate it randomly.
(Apart from manually looking it up in /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf
after the installation of course.)

dpkg-reconfigure zabbix-frontend-php doesn't seem to do anything either,
I have to purge the package and reinstall it to be able to reenter the
database information.

Greetings,
    Michel
