Package: ircii
Version: 20030315-1
Followup-For: Bug #109996

This is a most annoying bug.. It really does break all automated
installs. Here is a simple patch to just use the damn default
"irc.debian.org" and be done with it.

ircII is most likely a silently abandoned package, so this should be
NMU:d asap, and make it use debconf after sarge.
