there have been no maintainer replies to this bug and it has been two months
since Colin's last reply to
https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-debconf/debconf/-/merge_requests/8 -- if you don't
have time, I would like to offer to NMU debconf with the change proposed in
that merge request. What do you think?

I requested access to the Debconf Maintainers team on salsa. If you are okay
with that, I can also put my changes into the debconf git instead of just
uploading an NMU.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
