Description

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

       The most common use is "debconf-show packagename", 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.
