Package: debconf
Version: 1.5.1
Severity: normal
Hi,
The way debconf's debconf about priority level is a bit mis-phrased:
asking a newbie to choose "critical" simply can't work :) . And with the
dialog frontend, at the moment when he has to choose this he can't see
the help message telling him that yes, he should really choose this for
avoiding a lot of questions.
A very newbie-friendly phrasing could be:
How many questions are you ready to answer?
- as few as possible
- not many
- usual ones
- all of them!
