Seems, we did not remove all references to debconf back in 2017 and we
still read the confmodule file. However we don't use that code any more
since 2017:
commit c02d6aa7e53180030150bcb7bafecb5bc65ce245
Author: Francesco Paolo Lovergine <fran...@debian.org>

Fixed residual debconf support.
commit 81a40ed6042d63ea8593c1d04bcc2dcadd821592
Author: Francesco Paolo Lovergine <fran...@debian.org>
Date: Fri Jan 27 14:49:49 2017 +0100
Updated NEWS file about new version without debconf support.
commit b0acf6578dec55470659c80967b20d645c88c25b
Author: Francesco Paolo Lovergine <fran...@debian.org>
Date: Fri Jan 27 14:43:47 2017 +0100
Removed debconf support and maintainer support for non-standalone mode.
Therefore we don't change anything in the functionality if we stop
reading /usr/share/debconf/confmodule .
