[Refdb-devel] Debian packages use debconf for preconfigure and postinstall

The refdb-server package now uses debconf to preconfigure for the
postinstall script. It attempts to determine which database backend is
being used and, if necessary, asks for username and password.

All version testing using DB_VERSION has been stripped as the package
now relies entirely on refdbd's maintenance mode to upgrade the main
database when necessary. It also relies on refdbd to create the main
database after a fresh install.

Regards,
David.
