I was surprised to see the root password dialog. Even when using apt-get install with the "-y" option. The apt-get man page tells me that, besides answering 'yes' to all questions, the setup runs non-interactively. It also doesn't tell anything about debconf priorities or how to prevent questions during automatic installation.
IMO the debconf priority should be lowered or the apt-get man page should document these kind of exceptions. -- Root password policy for mysql https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119075 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
