Quoting Patrick Matthäi (pmatthaei@debian.org): > Maybe the default value at d-i for popcon should be set to true > (report popcon statistics). > atm it is false. To people who would be tempted to followup on this and yell and "Thou Shalt Not Do This" with arguments about ${privacy}, I suggest thinking twice. This has been discussed dozens of times since D-I automatically installs popcon and *always* ruled out. The question about popcon is asked at default install priority. Its wording has been thought as carefully as possible, in order to explain that popcon submissions are a helper for developers and not An Evil Spy. This question is well translated to 62 languages. There is nothing more we can do to have as many popcon submissions as possible, really. If the number is decrasing, this is because the number of Debian users who choose to install popcon is decreasing. Very probably because the number of people who use Debian is decreasing. Period.
