Description
Preseeding the debconf database isn't possible because the db values are overwritten when the i2p package is installed. The value isn't clobbered on upgrades.
For example:
# echo "i2p i2p/daemon boolean true" | debconf-set-selections # debconf-get-selections |grep i2p i2p i2p/daemon boolean true
But after installing the package, you'll see
# debconf-get-selections |grep i2p i2p i2p/daemon boolean false
This means that one cannot pre-seed the debconf database for I2P to run as a daemon before package installation.
This problem should be corrected once 0.8.8 hits the PPA/my package repo (I think I have it fixed already but a bit more testing is needed).
