## NAME

debconf-show - query the debconf database

## SYNOPSIS

debconf-show packagename [...] [--db=dbname] debconf-show --listowners [--db=dbname] debconf-show --listdbs

## DESCRIPTION

debconf-show lets you query the debconf database in different ways.

The most common use is *(L"debconf-show packagename*(R", which displays all items in the debconf database owned by a given package, and their current values. Questions that have been asked already are prefixed with an '*'.

This can be useful as a debugging aid, and especially handy in bug reports involving a package's use of debconf.

## OPTIONS

\fB--db=\fR\fIdbname\fR 4

Specify the database to query. By default, debconf-show queries the main database.

\fB--listowners\fR 4

Lists all owners of questions in the database. Generally an owner is equivalent to a debian package name.

\fB--listdbs\fR 4

Lists all available databases.
