I have been thinking about how to resolve this. At one time, the default was to not enable kexec reboot and there were many complaints/comments about how this was not reasonable since someone installing kexec-tools indeed would want kexec reboots. A bug was opened as well for kexec-tools (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=426506). It was finally decided enabling kexec reboot by default was the reasonable thing to do since one needs o install kexec-tools explicitly and one would install it primarily when they want to enable kexec reboots. Your bug report is exactly opposite of that original bug :)
How about if I leave the default to be enabled but make the debconf question high priority (it is medium priority at this time). This will force the end user, in most cases, to choose whether they want kexec reboots enabled or not. On the other hand, it adds another high priority question to answer at install time. Any opinions? Thanks -- =================== Khalid Aziz kha...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
