Hi Paul,

some comments. First of all, we're planning on getting rid of the dialog
alltogether and replacing it with a better approach with multiple
packages (Also hoping to package the OpenGFX free graphics for OpenTTD).

Also, this bug seems to be similar to Debian #524651
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=524651).

As to your actually report, I don't think that the dialog is any kind of
error condition. It is just informative and installation should continue
after that. If your openttd installation fails, than that is a bug and
is probably unrelated to the dialog (feel free to post more info in that
case). Possibly you assumed there was an error because you got the
dialog twice? I just discovered that you indeed get it twice if you have
apt-utils installed, once during preconfiguration and once during real
configuration. This is something that does need fixing...

I hope this makes things a bit more clear, could you please comment on
the above so we can find what the real bug is?
