You may have been bitten by the following bug: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=DEBIAN_FRONTEND%3Dnoninteractive&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=20020201232808.179ff0c4.dancer%40netfort.gr.jp&rnum=3 by setting DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive all should run fine, at least with "dpkg -y --force-yes" which is a bit rough, but does the trick. To get more debug info, set the verbose mode in the beginning of the rc script. regards, Oliver -- - Oliver Osburg - Sysadmin Computerlinguistik -- email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]phone: +49761 203 3356 note : All above is my opinion unless specified otherwise. 9:30, Computing Center: Mainserver died.

fai-setup, woody & cfengine
dear fai users, while trying to set up a fai server, we encountered the following problem when running fai-setup. ... >Automatically converting /etc/network/interfaces succeeded. >Old interfaces file saved as interfaces.dpkg-old. >hostname: Host name lookup failure >Creating base.tgz >Upgrading /usr/lib/fai/nfsroot >Adding additional packages to /usr/lib/fai/nfsroot: >portmap dhcp-client file rdate cfengine bootpc wget rsh-client less dump >ext2resize strace hdparm parted dnsutils grub ntpdate psmisc >dosfstools sysutils dialog libdetect0 discover mdetect read-edid kudzu hwtools >E: Package cfengine has no installation candidate a quick search in the mailing list archive revealed that we are not the only ones who have seen this error. in fact, we came across at least two replies by thomas lange, where he indicates that the debian mirror used may not be set up correctly. a quick look at our debian archives (as well as those on sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch and ftp.debian.org) showed that while a cfengine package for woody/i386 is indeed available (in the pool directory), it is not referenced in the corresponding Packages file which we believe to be ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-i386/Packages is this an error in the archive? if so, what, if anything, is to be done about it? cfengine is included in sarge, but after doing a dist-upgrade, we are now missing the package libdetect0, which we confirmed to have been removed from the distribution. how should we proceed? any help is appreciated, kind regards, vincent kraeutler
