Bug#289959: exim4-config: Missing debconf question for LOCAL_DELIVERY

Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.34-10
Severity: normal

The recent upgrade to 4.34-10 changed the value of the LOCAL_DELIVERY
variable to DEBCONFlocaldeliveryDEBCONF.  However, that variable doesn't
seem to be defined, and debconf never asked me what to set it to.  Is
the debconf question missing from this version?  I tried
dpkg-reconfigure -plow exim4-config just in case the priority was too
low, but that didn't do the trick.

Given the comments in 250980 ("This definetely won't happen for sarge"),
is it possible that this was done for sid and then partially backed out
when the security fix was pushed into sarge?
