Package: popularity-contest
Version: 1.55
Severity: wishlist

Currently, the popcon script on user computer sends the list of all
installed packages.
However, it would the nice to have a configurable option to limit it
to the official package because today, there is only two choices if
the user have sensitive packages:

 - refuse popcon to not publish them
 - accept popcon and be unpleased because it's published.

If they can choose what they publish: {all | only official packages | none}
it could fit more needs.
(And perhaps to have more contributors because it could fit the users
using currently the first choice?)
