Package: proofgeneral
Version: 3.5-7
Severity: wishlist

Currently you are quering users using debconf whether they would like
Proof General globally installed. This type of question arises for
several other packages as well (think about global shell settings, 
extensions for various editors, browsers, ...), however usually it is 
well understood (and hence not queried) that those programms could be
enabled gloablly or locally. Therefor the maintainers usually add a
note in README.Debian or similar documents, describing the
(dis)advantages of each method and give hints how to proceed. But
there is no question during installation.

Please reconsider if your install time question is necessary. I don't
know proof general (this issue arose during the German debconf
translation of your template) so if proof general is indeed special,
then simply close this bug (preferably with a brief explanation).
Remember that Debian is used at large sites as well, where
"dispensable" install time questions can be a real hassle.
