Package: cupsys
Version: 1.1.23-13
Severity: normal

>From the debconf manual:
       low    Very  trivial questions that have defaults that will work in the
              vast majority of cases.

       medium Normal questions that have reasonable defaults.

       high   Questions that don't have a reasonable default.

       critical
              Questions that you really, really need to see (or else).

Cupsys asks for the ports question with priority high. Since 631 is a
reasonable default for the port, the question should have priority
medium or lower. I don't think that it's really that important to
anybody to change the cupsys port, so I'd choose low, but maybe you know
better.
