Hmmm, the addition of "set -e" was meant to be a "lintian cleaning"
for the package while doing l10n updates (something I do very often
during such l10n uploads).

Apparently, the package was in a worse shape than I imaginedand
debconf stuff is not done in a standard way.

So, well, either I find the right fix quite quickly for this...or I
will re-hide the issue under the rug and just drop the "set -e" line.

At first glance, it seems that replacing all "db_input foo/bar" by
"db_input foo/bar || true" (in isdnutils-base.config, for instance)
could be what makes things work *without* "set +e". Untested, though

Some other packages have been bitten by this recently (but I can't
remember the name) and the suggested fix was the same as the one you
suggested.

So I'd say: go ahead, can't become any worse.

Sven.
