!confmiss
dpkg 2017-03-01 18:02:07
You have to especially tell the packaging system to reinstall config files because when they are gone, it is assumed that you want them to stay deleted. "aptitude -o DPkg::Options::='--force-confmiss' reinstall $packagename" will restore them (man dpkg for details). If the package uses for config file management, ask me about .
lf94 2017-03-01 18:02:52
My line loops way longer than that :D
lf94 2017-03-01 18:02:54

ASCII-Art 2017-03-01 18:13:06
into the tavern of dead souls, where your uncle is to the front of the room. And we don't do anything like it. We are to be in the elevator now.
