The whole state debconf is best described as "prototype". I'm not very experienced in perl, so I never saw a perl-program before that is so much less readable than a bad C-code. But I don't like perl at all. If I had any time in world I would start with rewriting anything perlish in base, but I just do not have it. Hochachtungsvoll, Bernhard R. Link
