Please confirm that you agree to disable these entries. Disable inetd entries? And this fails since solid-pop3d postinst has already called db_stop to stop debconf interactions. I'm reassigning the bug to update-inetd, which should re-enable debconf by using some hacking like that one in ucf package. (Or maybe debconf should re-enable itself when confmodule is re-loaded after stop was called?) Regards, robert -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
