Subject: debconf question unnecessary and doesn't use a2enmod

Package: libapache2-mod-python
Version: 3.3.1-6
Tags: l10n

Hi,

The package currently asks whether it should enable the module, and
explains that this is necessary if you want to use it. When someone
installs the package, it's obvious they in principle want to use it. In
the rare case (which?) that they don't, they can disable it in the Apache
configuration.

It enables itself by using ln -s, while there's an interface available fo=
r
it: a2enmod.

I propose that the debconf question is removed and that the package just
enables itself upon installation through a2enmod. A package that does thi=
s
right already is libapache2-mod-php5.


thanks,
Thijs
