@balasankarc it would be nice if we can pre answer the dbconfig questions. We may be able to use db_set for those questions. I'm not sure though as dbconfig-common is used by many packages.

Install it and see. dbcinfig will ask its own questions in addition to this, we already know the answers to those.

@pravi: These are the questions we are asking. I didn't understand what 'default' values you are referring to

1. Host name for this instance of Diaspora
2. PostgreSQL application password
3. Enable https?
4. Backup your database
5. Third party services to be enabled:

• Facebook
  1. Facebook App ID:
  2. Facebook Secret:
• Twitter
  1. Twitter Key:
  2. Twitter Secret:
• Tumblr
  1. Tumblr Key:
  2. Tumblr Secret:
• Wordpress

We can avoid asking questions that we already know answers for. For example, gitlab don't have these questions and we still have a fully configured service at the end.

I still don't understand the advantage it provides.

It will ask, do you want to use dbconfig-common? Then whether new host or localhost and password. We know answers to all those questions.
