Package: adduser Version: 3.111 Severity: minor Tags: patch The debconf command db_title is deprecated and causes warnings when used. Please apply the attached (untested but trivial) patch to use the command db_settitle instead.
Note that I've not marked the new title template as translatable. Alternative option ------------------ AFAIK the dialog title defaults to the package name. Capitalizing the package name is not really usual in Debian, so an alternative patch could be to just remove the line 'db_title Adduser' from the config script.
