A debconf note might be a better alternative than the proposed postinst output and I certainly thought also about this before proposing the other alternatives but stepped back from doing this because it is also mixing up a technical information with something else (even if way better than misusing postinst). > My proposal would be to add an inofficial control file field like > XB-Registration: http://foo.org/register which could be exposed in the > task pages as a "Register as a user for this package" link on the task > pages. This actually will not work. The X<something> fields do not make their way to any place where we can fetch them. Bat as I said: We might maintain this information right into the tasks file. Currently there is the Remark field as you can see for instance at http://debian-med.alioth.debian.org/tasks/bio#act (below normal description). This is very easily doable - just tell me which text should show up there.
