Package: debsecan
Version: 0.4.3.4
Severity: normal

The first question debsecan asks is confusing. First it takes about
checking once a day (so, essentially if a cron job should be
installed). Second paragraph informs, that a *download* has to occure
each time. 

The last paragraph before the answer appears to be totally unrelated:
     Do you want debsecan to send email reports?

There is nothing in this question about cron, about downloads, but
about sending reports. So how do I answer, if I don't want the cron
functionallity but still would like debsecan to send an email report
(btw. to which address?) after a run? What exactly does this question
configure?
