Package: update-inetd
Version: 4.38+nmu1+squeeze1
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
update-inetd should allow a non-interactive mode to avoid the use of
debconf.
Indeed, I get the following warning when I use update-inetd in a script
executed under udev responsability :
debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog
debconf: (TERM is not set, so the dialog frontend is not usable.)
debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline
debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Readline
debconf: (This frontend requires a controlling tty.)
debconf: falling back to frontend: Teletype
I looked at update-inetd code source and, in my opinion, DebianNet.pm
should load debconf code only if needed (if --multi is not present for
example) but this is always done.
This is the command I tried:
update-inetd --disable --multi $1 >/dev/null 2>>$log
Thanks for your work!
Regards,
Philippe.
