Another problem is that the mysql root password is stored for my
application in "ocsinventory-server ocsinventory-server/mysql/admin-pass".

If I change the root password and store it in "dbconfig-common
dbconfig-common/mysql/admin-pass" (using debconf-set-selections), when I
purge the package (with 
"ocsinventory-server ocsinventory-server/dbconfig-remove boolean true" and
"ocsinventory-server ocsinventory-server/purge boolean true"), then the
remove fail due to wrong password.

Regards.
