Hello, This long standing bug report (Mar 2001), along with #92140, suggested some alternative solutions: 1- change debconf message to "debconf: note: preconfigure requires the apt-utils package, skipping" 2- move apt-extracttemplates to apt from apt-utils. 3- both solutions Given that 135 KB is not such a big deal these days, should the approach #2 be adopted? At #92140 it is cited as the settled solution, at November 2001, but #89060 cited after that date the libapt-pkg-perl proposal. The debconf already suggests apt-utils since 2000, I guess, and documented the preconfigure feature, but users may become suprised by the original message regarding apt-utils. What is the best solution?
