fai-debconf(1)

NAME
fai-debconf - set debconf values using classes

SYNOPSIS
fai-debconf [OPTION] DIRECTORY

DESCRIPTION
This command is only called internally by FAI and not directly by the user. fai-debconf reads files in DIRECTORY which are also a defined class. If the name of the class is a directory, all files in the directory are read. The files must have the format of debconf-get-selections(1). All the input is used to call debconf-set-selections(1). This is done in the chroot environment if the variable $ROOTCMD is set. After setting the debconf values, dpkg-reconfigure(8) is called for every installed package and for which some debconf data was set.

OPTIONS

-h  Show help, version and summary of options.

-s  Skip reconfiguration of packages. Only set values in debconf database.

-v  Create verbose output.

-d  Add additional debugging output. Implies the -v option.

-f  Run dpkg-reconfigure for all packages FAI has information on, not only for those whose database entries were modified.
