I don't know. The choice of "agetty" as our default getty was because it
was free software and "mgetty" has a no-profit restriction on its license.
Otherwise, we would have made "mgetty" the default. I don't see a "uugetty"
package in the unstable directory - are you working on one? Is "uugetty"
GPL-ed?

There's been some discussion of switching the getty we use as the default.
The one restriction is that it must be free software. I don't remember who
the candidates were or where the discussion was when it ended.
