!!DESCRIPTION |

|
22 |
__debconf-communicate__ allows you to communicate with |
|
|
23 |
debconf on the fly, from the command line. The package |
|
|
24 |
argument is the name of the package which you are pretending |
|
|
25 |
to be as you communicate with debconf, and it may be omitted |
|
|
26 |
if you are lazy. It reads commands in the form used by the |
|
|
27 |
debconf protocol from stdin. For documentation on the |
|
|
28 |
available commands and their usage, see the debconf |
|
|
29 |
specification. |
|
|
30 |
|
|
|
31 |
|
|
|
32 |
The commands are executed in sequence. The textual return |
|
|
33 |
code of each is printed out to standard output. |
|
|
34 |
|
|
|
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
The return value of this program is the numeric return code |
|
|
37 |
of the last executed command. |
|
|

!!EXAMPLE |
|
|
39 |
|
|
|
40 |
|
|
|
41 |
echo get debconf/frontend debconf-communicate |
|
|
42 |
Print out the value of the debconf/frontend question. |
|
|
43 |
!!WARNING |
|
|
44 |
|
|
|
45 |
|
|
|
46 |
This program should never be used from a maintainer script |
|
|
47 |
of a package that uses debconf! It may however, be useful in |
|
|
48 |
debugging. |
