Changelog
debconf (1.5.25) unstable; urgency=low
[ Joey Hess ]
* debconf-devel(7): Fix state machine example to handle case where user
backs out of first question.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Support overriding frontend's package name determination (used to set
the owner) using the DEBCONF_PACKAGE environment variable. Useful for
applications driving debconf other than by way of package installation.
* Refer to po-debconf(7) rather than its README (thanks, James R. Van
Zandt). Closes: #505392
* Refer to debconf-show(1) from dpkg-reconfigure(8) for those who just
want to see the current configuration. Closes: #506070
* Only use -C fields when explicitly disabling internationalisation within
debconf (or when DEBCONF_C_VALUES=true), not merely when in the C
locale. Based on a patch by Frans Pop, for which thanks! Closes: #476873
* Force fallback to the default template if we encounter 'en' in the
locale list and no language-specific template for English was
found,since English text is usually found in a plain field rather than
something like Choices-en.UTF-8. This allows you to override other
locale variables for a different language with LANGUAGE=en. Thanks again
to Frans Pop. Closes: #496631
[ Manpages translations ]
* Completed german man page translation.
[ Debconf translations ]
* Corrections in german translation with apologies for
forgetting this bug report. Closes: #462302
