[Voyage-linux] Moving forward and preparing 0.3 release

[Edwin Whitelaw]

Punky,

I set

LANG=C;export LANG

in /etc/profile and that fixed the LANG complaints but I'm still getting 
debconf frontend complaints.  Tried installing perl-modules but 
obviously am missing something here. The modules are actually installed 
(turns out I didn't need to install perl-modules as they were already 
there) so what's the magic incantation to get the frontend working?

Anyone?

Edwin
