[pkg-ntp-maintainers] Bug#568719: debconf pool configuration

Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.4p8+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist

It would be nice if debconf provided a list of areas and country codes to choose from when
installing so that those NTP pool servers could be written to ntp.conf instead of the default ones.
Also, please consider using the "pool" configuration option instead of the current "server" one.
