So, cdebconf always displays errors. They can't be preseeded away:
/* Always display error messages */
q = db->methods.get(db, name);
if (q != NULL && q->template != NULL && q->template->type != NULL &&
strcmp(q->template->type, "error") == 0)
{
question_deref(q);
return DC_YES;
}
This was done in 2004 by Denis Barbier with no justification given.
I'm tempted to revert that part of 80bed2cd86b0b31e4d36525d5357ceb7abc1b80f.
