I'm sorry, I updated the patch, now it's the right one.
I touched:
 * Makefile.inc - this is an unresolved error. I just don't get the other
   sysinst messages to compile, no matter what I do. Perhaps you can help me
   debugging that, but whenever I add another language than English, he
   complains about missing translations - for MSG_rcconf_restore_failed,
   which is clearly there.
   Thus, atm, all languages except for English are commented out.
 * configmenu.c - add network configuration.
 * defs.h - add del_rc_conf
 * msg.mi.en, msg.mi.de, msg.mi.es, msg.mi.pl, msg.mi.fr
 * net.c - use del_rc_conf before add_rc_conf
 * util.c - add del_rc_conf

pkginteractive is a stand-alone script and I have no integration for sysinst
yet. That could be done withing a few minutes, but pkginteractive is a rather
crude hack and proof-of-concept. I wonder if there will be another
integration for this before 6.0, but for now, it imho works *somehow*.
