Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
The restart-without-asking debconf knob is formulated as a negative question:
Template: libraries/restart-without-asking
Type: boolean
Default: false
_Description: Restart services during package upgrades without asking?
This can be confusing: in my case, I initially thought I should pick "yes"
since I read the question is "would you like to be prompted before restarting
services".
I suggest to change the description to:
..
_Description: Ask permission to restart services during package upgrades?
..
and accordingly change the default answer to "Yes" (which would not be
a semantic change).
I assume this could be done backwards-compatibly by defining a new knob
(restart-without-asking2) and looking for the current knob name if the new knob
isn't set.
Cheers,
Daniel
