Package: gpm
Version: 1.19.6-19
Severity: wishlist
I was really pleased to see a message asking me to use "dpkg-reconfigure
gpm" instead of using gpmconfig. But I have found a much better (and
not-enough advertised tool), called configure-debian.
configure-debian is really under-advertised, since I'm a zealous debian
user for 4 years already (including dualbooting of my machine - 7 years).
And I noticed configure-debian just one month ago :)
Please then modify a message that gpmconfig prints, so that people will
be aware of a really good tool called configure-debian :))
thank you for reading my wishlist bug report ;)
---
I suggest a message like this:
WARNING
This program is now deprecated, please use "dpkg-reconfigure gpm"
or "configure-debian" instead. It will be removed in a near future.
If you want to get the old functionality regardless of this note
use "gpmconfig --legacy", but don't rely on it as the main purpose
of this program now is to die.
