You have been subscribed to a public bug by Daniel J Blueman (daniel-blueman):

Binary package hint: microcode.ctl

When installing the microcode.ctl package, the user is asked at high
priority (ie forced) whether to download microcode or not.

This has two implications:
 - a user may not know if the microcode should be downloaded or not, eg if another package installs this as a dependency
 - when installing a big set of pakages (eg on a fresh install), the long download-install process gets blocked by this package forcing the process to stop on this question

** Affects: microcode.ctl (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
