    class Debconf(builtins.object)
     |  Debconf(title=None, read=None, write=None, run_frontend=False)
     |
     |  A class that speaks the debconf protocol.
     |
     |  The simplest way to use this is as a context manager:
     |
     |      import debconf
     |
     |      with debconf.Debconf(run_frontend=True) as db:
     |          print(db.get('debconf/frontend'))
     |
     |  Note that this will send the STOP command on exiting the context
     |  manager, so you shouldn't expect to be able to use the same frontend
     |  again after this.  If you need to do that, then you should instantiate
     |  the class directly instead:
     |
     |      import debconf
     |
     |      db = debconf.Debconf(run_frontend=True)
     |      print(db.get('debconf/frontend'))
