 Description: Package configuration management system
 DescDetail: <<
 Debconf is a configuration management system for debian/fink packages. 
 Packages use Debconf to ask questions when they are installed.
 <<
+DescPort: <<
+
+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.
