That is to say, its dependency should read: debconf | debconf-2.0 Until this is fixed, it is impossible to use this package with cdebconf, and very hard to impossible to install cdebconf at all. debconf-2.0 was added to policy as a virtual package in 2002 and has been provided by debconf since 2003. In early 2004, dh_installdebconf began automatically adding it as an alternate to debconf in dependencies it generates for packages using debhelper. So if you're using a current version of debhelper you should only need to rebuild your package and review it. If you are not using debhelper, make sure the dependency is modified to allow debconf-2.0 to satisfy it. This bug report was filed by semiautomated means after a trio of posts to the debian-devel mailing list, and you have probably also received a bcced mail about the issue before. If your package's dependencies are correct and it really has some valid reason to depend on debconf alone, please reassign this bug report to cdebconf with an explanation of what debconf feature your package depends on, so it can be reimplemented in cdebconf. ----- End forwarded message ----- -- see shy jo
