What do you mean here? A package could hardcode the default seedrefs
(assuming we could update it reasonably frequently), or could download
them over HTTPS, but we'd still need to ask for configuration. Which is
our right, at least for debian, using debconf. For very low levels we
could automatically turn on opennet maybe, but we're going to use a
significant chunk of the user's disk space and bandwidth... that can't
be swept under the carpet, even when dealing with geeks. Either we
configure through the web interface (meaning dependencies don't work out
of the box), or we ask users much the same questions as we do now but
through debconf.
