How compatible are those 'alternatives' currently. I hate to say this, since actually implementing it is a lot of work in supporting programs like debhelper, but if the debconf-2.0 pseudopackage was introduced prior to a new feature in the debconf interface there needs to be a debconf-2.1 or debconf-3.0 as well. If cdebconf implements that protocol, it can provide that pseudopackage as well. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
