Bug#206009: openoffice.org-bin: Prelinking question could be improved



Package: openoffice.org-bin
Version: 1.0.99+1.1rc-1
Severity: minor

The Debconf question about prelinking simply says that if you prelink
the program will start up faster without mentioning any downsides but
then defaults to "No".  This is a bit confusing - the assumption given
the description would be that this is something that everyone would want
to do.

The description ought to at least say why you might want to choose "No".
It may also be good to change the default or even just do prelinking and
remove the question entirely.
