Package: apt
Version: 0.3.13
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
When I upgraded to this version of apt, apt silently appended
these lines,
// Pre-configure all packages before they are installed.
DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs {"dpkg-preconfig --apt";};
to my `/etc/apt/apt.conf' file. Shouldn't this apt.conf be a
conffile?
Thanks,

No, it is an optional user file.
