This is the last call for comments for the review of debconf templates for netselect. The reviewed templates will be sent on Wednesday, February 18, 2009 to the package maintainer as a bug report and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as a subject tag. --
Template: netselect/install-setuid Type: boolean Default: false _Description: Should netselect be installed setuid root? Netselect can be installed with the set-user-id bit set, so that it will run with the permissions of the "root" user. Since netselect needs these permissions to work properly, unprivileged users cannot run it unless it is installed this way. . Enabling this feature may be a security risk. If in doubt, it is suggested to leave it disabled.
