Package: adequate
Version: 0.16.4
Severity: important

When debconf mode is enabled and there is a large amount of adequate
output, debconf fails to run whiptail due to the large amount of
arguments being passed to it. I never had debconf mode enabled before
the rewrite but I expect the Perl debconf module would not do this,
so this is probably another regression from the rewrite.
