Bug#266329: asks at high priority about configuring, but follows with medium proority questions



Package: atftpd
Version: 0.6.3
Severity: normal

The debconf config script asks at high priority whether to configure
atftpd with debconf. If you choose to do so, it asks all the config
questions at medium priority. The result is that if it's installed at
high priority, it asks if you want to configure it, and then doesn't let
you.

I think it would be better not to ask the high priority question at all,
and always configure it, if the user's debconf priority is set to allow
it. That's what debconf priority levels are for, to control what level
of configuration you want to do. There's no need for atftpd to ask about
that.
