Are you sure this is not a font problem or something wrong with your terminal emulator? Marking appropriately for now. You can use this test case: wget http://people.debian.org/~guillem/pkg-conff-prompt-0.deb dpkg -i pkg-conff-prompt-0.deb wget http://people.debian.org/~guillem/pkg-conff-prompt-1.deb dpkg -i pkg-conff-prompt-1.deb this should give you a conffile prompt. thanks, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
