[Debconf-devel] Bug#501767: [patch] hide cancel and close in the gnome frontend

Package: debconf
Version: 1.5.23


Hi,

I would like to hide the cacncel button and the close button in the
gnome frontend by default. The rational is that users often click it
when they don't have a clue what to answer. 

But because "cancel" is mapped to "exit 1" this makes the maintainer
script that calls debconf fail. This is especially a problem during
dist-upgrades where failures in maintainer scripts are bad.

Cheers,
 Michael
