Linuxconf is very broken (and it's documented in the Readme's provided with the .deb) on Debian, and it mangles perfectly good config files into nasty-looking ones that sysadmins who prefer vi usually dislike reading. It also has various security issues. (Look at what it does to DNS configuration files sometime.
