How to put a license (question) in preinst/debconf



Hi,

I have a package for a software, that is provided under an academic
license - free for non-profit organisations and academic use, not free
for profit organisations. So I want to put a debconf template into
preinst, so the user MUST accept the license, before he installs the
package (and of course: to install the package). What is the better
alternative: (a) putting the whole license into the debconf template, so
the user can read the whole license OR (b) just leave a pointer where to
find the license and only ask, if the user accepts the license (AFAIK
flashplugin-nonfree uses this way).

What would you choose and why?

Regards, Daniel
