Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install.
Piuparts runs the installation with DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive set
in the environment and stdin redirected fron /dev/null.
The distributed-net package tries to perform interactive configuration
anyway and goes into an infinite loop retrying.

Debconf should be used for configuration, at least a debconf question
should be asked whether interactive configuration should be performed
(and if that question can't be asked - don't run dnetc -config).

The init script should check whether a configuration exists - and if
config is missing the service should be considered disabled and
information how to configure the package should be printed.


cheers,

Andreas
