Dear exabgp maintainer,

exabgp declares a constraint on the allowed versions of debconf. This 
constrained version is extremely old and thus not needed. Its presence 
also prevents `dh_installdebconf` from adding to `${misc:Depends}` the 
proper set of dependencies needed to support debconf-2.0/cdebconf.

A PR that fixes this issue is available at:

https://github.com/Exa-Networks/exabgp/pull/1245

Regards,
