 Am I correct then in assuming that you won't do anything, Max?

 Could you put this file to the debian/po/ directory of this package,

done, just a small nitpick, see below

Bug#377618: [Logcheck-devel] Bug#377618: logcheck: Please do not abuse debconf

2006-07-20 Thread maximilian attems
On Mon, 10 Jul 2006, Thomas Huriaux wrote:

 Hi,
 
 You are using two debconf notes which really look like a debconf abuse
 (from debconf-devel(7): It should be used only for important notes that
 the user really should see, since debconf will go to great pains to make
 sure the user sees it).
 
 The first note (logcheck/install-note) should probably be moved to a
 README.Debian file or somewhere else in the documentation. Or you should
 really use debconf to configure these two options (report level and
 address) instead of displaying a note.

debconf notes are usually more effective than README's,
also the note is _only_ displayed at level medium so i fail to see the
abuse of the install-note.

 The second note (logcheck/changes) can probably be removed. It no longer
 concerns supported transitions in Debian: the version 1.2.39 is in
 sarge, and if I understand correctly, it is for transitions from a
 version  1.2.3. However, this note should have been in a NEWS.Debian
 file.

it only shows up on upgrades and will be removed postetch.
currently we may wish to backport latest etch, so such upgrade
handling must stay.

 No, the argument of the priority is not valid. The lowest the priority
 is, the more experienced the user is expected to be. An experienced user
 usually knows where to find the relevant doc, and expects to find it at
 the right place.
 Moreover, as I said in my previous mail, you should use debconf to
 _configure_ the package, not to tell the user he/she can configure it.
 I therefore attach a patch to configure with debconf the two related
 items. Please check it carefully as I made it quickly.

big NACK,
this is a real policy violation,
one is not allowed to change configfiles with debconf.
you would need to put it into /etc/defaults/logcheck.

and as you currently failed to convince me politely,
downgrading this bug.

this debconf messages were added way before the logcheck team formed
and we cleaned them up already a lot. the second note will soon
be phase out.
 
 
 See also policy 3.9.1:
 
   Packages should try to minimize the amount of prompting they need to do
 
 You seem to use debconf only because it is more effective

please notice the subtle _should_

 Also -- but it's probably way too late for that -- a common prefix
 for all files installed by logcheck-database would be helpful, and
 it would make it much easier for maintainers to start providing
 their own rule files without a file conflict.

that's only usefull if you push the rulefiles to the packages.
 
  Having logcheck rules moved out of logcheck breaks dedicated
  loghosts.
 
 If the goal is to support logcheck on loghosts (which sounds weird
 to me), then you should make it policy that *no* packages provide
 rule files.

this is a very common logcheck install and if you look at the archives
back that was the main reason to move logfiles back into logcheck-db

i was quite frustrated back than that Rhonda, who doesn't do much
rule file managamgent heavily voiced the contrare.
(no that is on attack, you did marvelous job for the debconf and
 the template translations)
but xtat didn't rule back then as project leader so i don't
remain as active as before that discussion.

moving the rules to the packages also really makes it harder
to have logcheck for another os.
their postfix is very similar to ours, so they should just
inherit the rules.
 
now that there seem some logcheck action again,
i'd be motivated to clean up old upgrade path stuff.
