#185260 — Debconf python module

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Hi,

I've been reading about debconf internals lately and I've seen some
references to the "debconf python module".

Even the man page for *debconf-devel* mentions it:

"Perl programmers can use the Debconf::Client::ConfModule(3pm) perl module,
and *python programmers can use the debconf python module*."

The problem is, I can't find this module/package, neither in debian
repository nor in Python Package Index (PyPI).

I can develop a new module, it seems pretty straightforward, but I would
like to know what happened to the other module/package. It seems there is
no trace of its existence.

Best Regards,
Gustavo

here (Jessie) it is included in the debconf package, maybe you have only
looked for a separate package?

Oh, I missed that, indeed it is there. My bad.

Thank you very much for your help.

Best regards,
Gustavo
