Hi,

I'd like to have a way to tell libpam0g (without setting
DEBIAN_FRONTEND noninteractive) to freely reload any services it might
want to reload without being interactive.

This does not seem to be possible via debconf preloading.

Greetings
Marc

thanks

I can't see a reasonable way to implement this, and the current behavior is
consistent with that of glibc and openssl.  Patches accepted, otherwise
'wontfix', sorry.

How about --enable and --disable command-line options (and possibly
--list) to allow non-interactive policy enforcement?
