From + debconf 0.5 onwards there should be very few reasons to use isdefault/seen + anyway, as backing up works much better now. See + /usr/share/doc/debconf-doc/changelog.gz for more information. + . + The misuse of isdefault often leads to questions being asked twice in one + installation run, or, worse, on every upgrade. Please test your package + carefully to make sure this does not happen. |
