Is this new then? I didn't see it before. Anyway, it would be nice if I 
would have got a debconf question about this, as it's just uselessly 
filling logs on stand alone systems :)
OTOH: dpkg-reconfigure does give me the question, so maybe I just missed it.

Thanks for your kind and quick reply, though.
