-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
I noticed the removal of "remember the restart setting?" in changelog entry of 1.19.6-20, and it sounds similar to my recently adding a silly question to ipopd and uw-imapd: debconf is *not* a registry (as it states itself in its documentation) so be careful to respect actual configuration files over debconf answers. What I mean is, if the answer to your seemingly silly question relates to setup of configuration files that the local admin can later have edited manually, those changes must be respected instead of the debconf answers. If the related configuration files are reachable for parsing (which was not the case for me) then off course you can check if it is sane to do what you want or not. Just remember to do that additional parsing if needed. I must admit that I haven't looked closely at gpm, so please excuse me if I am all wrong here. If you do not understand what I am talking about, then instead ask me to clarify - it is a tricky cornercase that I myself didn't realize until someone brought up a concrete (annoying, and in itself complex, and revealing other bugs in my packaging code) case that it could happen.
