The only reply I see in the bug log of #316834 is a *disagreement* with you. You also acknowledged that the second template (arguably the more important one) belongs in NEWS.Debian, but your patch drops that template completely. Granted, that note was never being /displayed/, but I don't think it's correct to remove the text from the package completely when it could be left in place for reference or (better) put in a NEWS.Debian. Anyway, I completely agree with you that these debconf notes are abuse of debconf, but I still think this is out of scope for a freeze exception without the maintainer's consent. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
