<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<B>debconf-show</B> lets you query the debconf database in different ways.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
The most common use is ``debconf-show packagename'', which displays all items
|
|
in the debconf database owned by a given package, and their current values.
|
|
Questions that have been asked already are prefixed with an '*'.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
This can be useful as a debugging aid, and especially handy in bug reports
|
|
involving a package's use of debconf.
