Bug#184518: footnote 6



Package: debian-policy
Severity: minor

Footnote 6 says:
"4% of Debian packages [see Debconf stats] currently use debconf"

Two minor bugs, but should I really bother submitting different bug
reports?

http://kitenet.net/programs/debconf/stats/ says:
"Whups, you want to go here. " and points to
http://auric.debian.org/~joeyh/debconf-stats/

http://auric.debian.org/~joeyh/debconf-stats/data says:
03/12/2003,    780,  12269

Which is roughly 6.3574863477055994783600945472329. 6% is currently more
accurate than 4%.

Debian Policy Manual version 3.5.9.0 was created on 2003-03-07. (according
to the bottom of the TOC). On that date the data says:
03/07/2003,    783,  12281
Which is roughly 6.3757023043726080938034362022637, slightly higher. I
recommend if such a statistic is to be kept, it should be flagged and
updated upon revision of the document. (I know 2% is within "roughly",
that's why I set the severity to minor.)
