Yes, it's still valid. It is submitted well after the -c/-d was implemented.


The point is that, -c is used for sourcing a *whole* file, while the local
configuration file is sourced *after* sourcing the global one, so that user
customization to configuration can be preserved during grml-debootstrap
upgrade.

The patch is for this purpose.
