Package: dropbear
Version: 0.45-2
Severity: wishlist
In low end systems running dropbear as a standalone service consumes
memory. However dropbear supports running the service from inetd.conf so
please offer installation choices like:
1) Run as service (at boot)
2) Run from inetd (uses less memory)
The line to add to inetd.conf would be:
ssh stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/dropbear -i
This can be easily done during installation using:
update-inetd --group RPC --add "ssh stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd
/usr/sbin/dropbear -i"

I don't want that. (1) I don't like debconf questions for package
configuration options; (2) I don't recommend running dropbear under
inetd, better use tcpsvd from ipsvd, if not standalone; (3) it's trivial
for an administrator to do manually.
Thanks, Gerrit.
