[Debconf-devel] Bug#1087523: debconf: Move to /usr/lib/apt/apt-extracttemplates

Package: debconf
Version: 1.5.87
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: jak at debian.org

APT 2.9.11 moves the apt-extracttemplates program from /usr/bin
to /usr/lib/apt (apt's libexec directory) as part of moving it
to the main `apt` package, where it can now be utilized by
every installation without needing to install apt-utils.

The `apt-utils` package retains a compatibility symlink with
man pages.

Please update your code to the new file path and change any
apt-utils dependency to apt (>= 2.9.11~), or keep a fall back
and use apt (>= 2.9.11~) | apt-utils.

Thank you.
