Package: apt-cacher-ng
Version: 0.7.18-1
Severity: normal

Hello Eduard,

Apt-cacher-ng works great, doing an upgrade isn't.

It are the messages as in
------------ <screenshot>

Setting up apt-cacher-ng (0.7.11-1) ...

Configuration file `/etc/apt-cacher-ng/acng.conf'
 ==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
 ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
   What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
    Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
    N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
      D     : show the differences between the versions
      Z     : start a shell to examine the situation
 The default action is to keep your current version.
*** acng.conf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?

and the exta work that I would like to avoid.

The "Configuration file `/etc/apt-cacher-ng/acng.conf' ==> Modified"
is seen by me and others who modify 'CacheDir', 'Port' and 'BindAddress'
on each upgrade. Also by all those who have to set 'Proxy'.

It is something where "debconf" is part of the solution.

The patch that I have been preparing, will follow soon.
It was written with guidance of `man 7 debconf-devel`.


Looking forward for feedback on to the proposed changes.

Kind Regards
Geert Stappers
