debconf 1.5.26ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

debconf (1.5.26ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - Gnome.pm: Do not show "Cancel" or "Close" buttons during release
      upgrades.  Debian Bug: #501767.
    - Build for python2.6.
    - Convert debconf.py for python3.0 and install.

debconf (1.5.26) unstable; urgency=low

  * Use 'key not in dict' rather than 'not dict.has_key(key)' in debconf.py;
    dict.has_key is deprecated in Python 2.6.
  * debconf-apt-progress: Don't send STOP if we didn't start the debconf
    frontend ourselves; in that case the application calling us should
    arrange to stop itself.
  * debconf.py: Use subprocess rather than popen2 if it's available. popen2
    is deprecated in Python 2.6.

debconf (1.5.25) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * debconf-devel(7): Fix state machine example to handle case where user
    backs out of first question.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Support overriding frontend's package name determination (used to set
    the owner) using the DEBCONF_PACKAGE environment variable. Useful for
    applications driving debconf other than by way of package installation.
  * Refer to po-debconf(7) rather than its README (thanks, James R. Van
    Zandt). Closes: #505392
  * Refer to debconf-show(1) from dpkg-reconfigure(8) for those who just
    want to see the current configuration. Closes: #506070
  * Only use -C fields when explicitly disabling internationalisation within
    debconf (or when DEBCONF_C_VALUES=true), not merely when in the C
    locale. Based on a patch by Frans Pop, for which thanks! Closes: #476873
  * Force fallback to the default template if we encounter 'en' in the
    locale list and no language-specific template for English was
    found,since English text is usually found in a plain field rather than
    something like Choices-en.UTF-8. This allows you to override other
    locale variables for a different language with LANGUAGE=en. Thanks again
    to Frans Pop. Closes: #496631

  [ Manpages translations ]
  * Completed german man page translation.

  [ Debconf translations ]
  * Corrections in german translation with apologies for
    forgetting this bug report. Closes: #462302
