I'd like to congratulate Michael Alan Dorman for the most stupid and
annoying use of debconf. The bunch of questions asked on the libnet-perl
installation are just annoying people installing it for what it is : a
dependency for packages needing networking functionality for perl.

Please, kick out all those questions. They have nothing to do here and
should be replaced by either configuration files or autodetection. There
have been 4 bug reports for more than 6 months asking for this and you
haven't even replied to any of them.

Maybe it should be recalled to everyone that debconf is not a place for
asking users a bunch of stupid crap (how many % of our users know what
is SNMP ?), but a place to configure the few things that cannot be
autodected. Thank you.
