The refdb-server package now uses debconf to preconfigure for the postinstall script. It attempts to determine which database backend is being used and, if necessary, asks for username and password. All version testing using DB_VERSION has been stripped as the package now relies entirely on refdbd's maintenance mode to upgrade the main database when necessary. It also relies on refdbd to create the main database after a fresh install. Regards, David. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
