 DESCRIPTION

-On Debian and alike systems debconf-set-selections(1) can be used
+On Debian and alike systems :strong:`debconf-set-selections`\ (1) can be used
 to setup configuration parameters.
 
 
 REQUIRED PARAMETERS
 -------------------
+cf. ``--line``.

+
+OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
+-------------------
 file
-   Use the given filename as input for debconf-set-selections(1)
+   Use the given filename as input for :strong:`debconf-set-selections`\ (1)
-   If filename is "-", read from stdin.
+   If filename is ``-``, read from stdin.
+
+   **This parameter is deprecated, because it doesn't work with state detection.**
+line
+   A line in :strong:`debconf-set-selections`\ (1) compatible format.
+   This parameter can be used multiple times to set multiple options.
+
+   (This parameter is actually required, but marked optional because the
+   deprecated ``--file`` is still accepted.)
