dmacks: "locale" cmd missing on 10.3--omit to stop runtime warning
(nonfunctional/incompatible on 10.4, but at least it fails silently)
+
+NOTE: The debconf has been modified so that it does *not* run its own
+configuration during postinstall with the command
+ . %p/share/debconf/confmodule
+because that was interfering with attempts to let fink run unattended
+(such as when making a bindist).
+
+The debconf maintainer is welcome to create a new version which runs the
+configuration during postinstall, PROVIDED THAT THE POSTINSTALL SCRIPT ALWAYS
+EXITS AFTER SOME LENGTH OF TIME IF THE USER GIVES NO INPUT.
