Bug#228839: debconf: Could you change default priority to 'high'?
Package: debconf
Version: 1.4.29
Severity: wishlist
I'm sorry for bring up again about priority issue.
This wishlist is similar with #228839, but JoeyH looks don't
want to provide priority question in base-config.
After test and test, and as user's view, I think it is better that
debconf uses 'high' as default priority.
Background:
1. d-i/cdebconf's default is 'high'.
2. base-config works on this level also.
3. User launches tasksel, aptitude or dselect from base-config menu.
4. These package installation works on priority 'high'.
5. After "finish" screen, base-config backs priority to default level.
6. debconf's default is 'medium', not 'high'.
7. When user does install or reconfigure package... Confusing.
User meets different messages from he/she saw on base-config.
(Of course if user runs base-config again, priority backs 'high'... but
I doubt he/she uses base-config every time for package installation.)
Thanks,
