       On Debian and alike systems debconf-set-selections(1) can be used to setup configuration parameters.

          # Setup gitolite's gituser
          __debconf_set_selections nslcd --line 'gitolite gitolite/gituser string git'

          # Setup configuration for nslcd from a file.
          # NB: Multiple lines can be passed to --line, although this can be considered a hack.
          __debconf_set_selections nslcd --line "$(cat "${__files:?}/preseed/nslcd.debconf")"
