[Debian-mobcom-maintainers] Bug#1096121: smstools: outdated debconf version constraint; inhibits support for debconf-2.0/cdebconf

[Gioele Barabucci]

Package: src:smstools
Version: 3.1.21-4
Tags: patch
Usertags: debconf-2.0-missing

Dear smstools maintainers,

smstools declares a constraint on the allowed versions of debconf. This 
constrained version is extremely old and thus not needed. More 
importantly, its presence blocks `dh_installdebconf` from adding to 
`${misc:Depends}` the proper set of dependencies needed to support 
debconf-2.0/cdebconf.

A MR that fixes this issue is available at:
