X-Spam-Level:
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-3
Severity: wishlist
When upgrading from an older version libc6 asks the "Restarting services"
question. It would be nice if this would be asked via debconf to make
automated upgrades easier.
TIA

If you are upgrading to woody, one can also assume you have read the
upgrade part of the woody release notes. The libc6 issues would be
documented there.
