It was considered and rejected for this upload.  I plan to get it done
before the final release heading for Squeeze.

The reason is that we are not sure about the content of the debconf
template, and wanted more review of the english original before asking
translators to spend time on it.  The text is too long, and should be
trimmed down while keeping the provided information.

If you got time to review the template and suggest improvements.

Happy hacking,
