[Openstack-devel] Bug#675135: nova: Debconf abuse: nova-common/start_services

[Christian Perrier]

Package: nova
Severity: normal

This debconf template is debconf abuse. DebConf should not be used to
display notes such as "Software <foo>  will work when configured" or
such things.

In short, indeed: Debconf Notes Are Evil.

There is a good rationale to explain this in details in
debconf-devel(7).
