Bug#801614: xserver-xorg-legacy: ask for needs_root_rights in Xwrapper.config
Package: xserver-xorg-legacy Version: 2:1.20.4-1 Followup-For: Bug #801614 Yes please, I need this preseedable so I can set this to yes in the debconf database in an installer for a specific platform which needs this for the X server to work, so that, when the user later installs the X server, the settings will be already correct (we do not install X by default but wish to prepare for it). -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unreleased APT policy: (500, 'unreleased'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (100, 'experimental') Architecture: x32 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, amd64 Kernel: Linux 5.2.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/lksh Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages xserver-xorg-legacy depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.73 ii libaudit1 1:2.8.5-2 ii libbsd00.10.0-1 ii libc6 2.29-1 ii xserver-common 2:1.20.4-1 xserver-xorg-legacy recommends no packages. xserver-xorg-legacy suggests no packages. -- debconf information: xserver-xorg-legacy/xwrapper/actual_allowed_users: anybody xserver-xorg-legacy/xwrapper/allowed_users: Anybody
Bug#801614: xserver-xorg-legacy: ask for needs_root_rights in Xwrapper.config
Package: xserver-xorg-legacy Version: 2:1.17.2-3 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, Would it be possible to add the line needs_root_rights=auto to Xwrapper.config and have debconf query the user for the proper value.
