Package: wvdial
Version: 1.61-8
Severity: important
I am logged in to my system via serial console.
During an upgrade I saw this output:
Setting up wvdial (1.61-7) ...
ATQ0 V1 E1
It makes no sense to send modem commands to the UART on which the tty
session is running. Who should reply?

/etc/wvdial.conf
After 45 minutes I gave up and killed the process 29750 to let my system
upgrade finish.
wfconf should time out after 10s of not receiving a reply from the modem.
Same problem with 1.61-8.
