[Popcon-developers] Bug#217928: Suggesting popularity-contest during the Debian installation process

[Quim Gil]

Package: popularity-contest
Version: 1.5
Severity: wishlist
Tags: sid

Considering the type of questions any user receives during the 
instalation process, I think that many people would answer "YES" to a 
question like 

"Do you like to install the popularity-contest package? It will send 
anonimously the packages installed in your computer on a weekly basis, 
so developers may have a better idea about most used tools by the 
Debian community".

Or something like that.

Surely non-expert and/or non-techie users (just like me) would happily 
install the pacage since the beginning, since this is a good way for us 
to submit a kind of feedback to the project.
