Description-en: dbconfig-common bypass
If a package relies on the dbconfig-common framework for database setup and
maintenance, installing dbconfig-no-thanks instead of one of dbconfig's
database-specific packages will block this function. It is intended for cases
where the system administrator desires or requires full control of the
database or where dbconfig-common makes bad choices, and typically leaves
the depending packages non-functional until manually configured.
