Subject: Subroutine Debconf::FrontEnd::Editor::SUPER::screenwidth redefined
Date: Sat, 12 Oct 2013 20:00:34 +0000
Package: debconf
Version: 1.5.51
Severity: minor

This warning is occuring over and over again during updates, I think
it started with the last major perl update:

Subroutine Debconf::FrontEnd::Editor::SUPER::screenwidth redefined at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Base.pm line 31, <GEN1> line 3.

running dpkg-reconfigure debconf also results in

Subroutine Debconf::Element::Editor::Select::SUPER::value redefined at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Base.pm line 31, <IN> line 33.
Subroutine Debconf::Element::Editor::Select::SUPER::value redefined at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Base.pm line 31.

Confirmed in Debian Jessie.
It incidentally affects the dpkg_reconfigure Ansible module.

> Subroutine Debconf::FrontEnd::Editor::SUPER::screenwidth redefined at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Base.pm line 31, <GEN1> line 14.
> Subroutine Debconf::Element::Editor::Select::SUPER::value redefined at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Base.pm line 31.
> OK

(In my case, new debconf values passed via the Ansible module are not stored on the remote.)
