When installing gitlab on my Ubuntu box, I made an error in the install dialog that pops up during the setup. This causes the overall install of the gitlab package to fail. I tried anything I could think of or find on the Internet to remove those settings, but any time I try to re-install gitlab, it never asks me those dialog questions anymore but re-uses the wrong answers from the initial install. dpkg-reconfigure will also not work, because it’s not installed fully yet …
Any idea what I need to do to fix this?
Things I tried:
- apt --purge remove gitlab
- apt clean
- apt install -f
- 'rm’ing anything I could find with the gitlab string in its filename (just about)
