I changed the default of the debconf question to false. I agree that this is a good thing idependent of this bug. I did not close these bugs in the changelog, because I think that this is not really a fix for these bugs. The bugs will not go away once this change is uploaded and if someone chooses to manage cdrom mountpoints with discover, they will reappear. I'd like to find the real cause for this bug. I however agree, that these bugs are no longer rc, once the default is changed. One thing I'm not sure about is the urgency of this upload. By itself the change is minimal, but if we upload with high urgency this will also override the waiting period in unstable of the changes made in discover 1.7.0. I'm pretty confident that discover 1.7.0 works, but you never know ... So I leave this decision to whoever wants to sponsor this upload. Gaudenz
