Bug#721329: debconf: dpkg-reconfigure -a fails on fresh wheezy installation
Package: debconf Version: 1.5.49 Severity: important Running dpkg-reconfigure -a fails on every fresh installations of wheezy. Error: # dpkg-reconfigure --all ... [removed gpg output] ... update-alternatives: using /usr/share/man/man7/bash-builtins.7.gz to provide /usr/share/man/man7/builtins.7.gz (builtins.7.gz) in auto mode [ ok ] Stopping periodic command scheduler: cron. [ ok ] Starting periodic command scheduler: cron. update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated) /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: initramfs-tools is broken or not fully installed I have tried to build the system with Debian Installer (from official netinst CD image) and from the command line with debootstrap. Not sure if the bug is in debconf or initramfs-tools, but this bug makes dpkg-reconfigure -a totally unusable. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.11.0-rc7+ (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages debconf depends on: ii perl-base 5.14.2-21 Versions of packages debconf recommends: ii apt-utils 0.9.7.9 ii debconf-i18n 1.5.49 Versions of packages debconf suggests: pn debconf-docnone pn debconf-utils none pn libgtk2-perl none pn libnet-ldap-perl none pn libqtcore4-perlnone pn libqtgui4-perl none pn libterm-readline-gnu-perl none ii perl 5.14.2-21 ii whiptail 0.52.14-11.1 -- debconf information: debconf-apt-progress/preparing: * debconf/frontend: Dialog debconf-apt-progress/title: * debconf/priority: low debconf-apt-progress/info: debconf-apt-progress/media-change: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#616007: dpkg-reconfigure cron fails
Package: cron Version: 3.0pl1-116 Severity: normal Running dpkg-reconfigure cron fails in fresh installations of Debian Squeeze 6.0 (amd64), which means also dpkg-reconfigure --all fails if the cron package is installed.
