Package: cron-apt
Version: 0.4.7
Severity: minor

The default config contains commmented out defaults EXCEPT for the option
"DIFFONCHANGES":

$ sed -e'/^$/d' -e'/^#/d' cron-apt-0.4.7/conf/config
DIFFONCHANGES=prepend

It would be neater to have a default configured in cron-apt-0.4.7/src/cron-apt
and comment out the option in cron-apt-0.4.7/conf/config leaving it as an 
example.

I know this is not important... buut thought I'd mention it anyway... If I can 
work out how to use report but a patch is attached... 
if I can't I'll end the patch to the BTS later!
