I'm using the note to warn the admin when mcelog is not usable on the machine. I don't really care whether the note is displayed or not, because in the latter case the admin will get a mail, which is even better. I used to display the warning and mail root in the postinst, but debconf is the right way to do it, as discussed previously (see archived bugs for mcelog). It is important to warn the admin in this case because either: - there is no hardware support for MCEs, and mcelog is useless - kernel support is lacking, or the device node is not there, so mcelog cannot work And we both know that nobody reads the damn README :) JB. -- Julien BLACHE - Debian & GNU/Linux Developer - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Public key available on <http://www.jblache.org> - KeyID: F5D6 5169 GPG Fingerprint : 935A 79F1 C8B3 3521 FD62 7CC7 CD61 4FD7 F5D6 5169 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
