Package: ipopd
Version: 7:2002edebian1-9
Severity: wishlist

When upgrading to this version of ipopd, I was presented with this
configuration question:

"The ports selected for enabling may be overridden by locally
 configured services. By default the port selection is respected only
 on initial installs, and is ignored on later reconfiguration.

 Do you want to ignore possible local tweaks and always use selected
 ports?

 Enforce port selection?

  <Yes> <No>"

This text is incomprehensible to me, a casual ipopd-user, long-time
GNU/Linux-user/administrator.

Especially the first sentence puzzles me; enabling? What enabling?
And why would the port selection not be respected on
reconfiguration? Why would I want to ignore the changes I make
locally (and what is meant by 'locally'? Changes I make on my
machine are local by definition, or?!)? What would happen?

As I do not understand what the question is about I cannot provide
a suggestion for better wording.

Even as I try now to guess what it means, I fail.

Maybe it's just me. Feel free to close the bug if the wording is
obviuous to everybody else.
