Hop, mon texte standard:

Debconf templates should avoid using constructions like this because of the
various interfaces used by debconf. Depending for instance on translation,
some of these may present the user with a choice different from a Yes/No
choice....and some may not.

If you want to see this, just try to choose the "gnome" interface for
debconf, then "dpkg-reconfigure <your-package>" under X (you may need
some lib* packages installed for the gnome interface to work).

So the only solution for avoiding "strange templates" is by reformulating,
for instance :

"If you refuse here" instead of "If you say no here".

(or "you should refuse here" instead of "you should answer "no" here)

(or "accept here" instead of "select YES")
