review text: This note discusses an approach, recently outlined by \textit{R. R. Yager} [ibid. 31, 99-112 (1987; Zbl 0624.68083)], to default reasoning based on possibility theory. Some limitations of his technique are pointed out, and remedied in the same theoretical framework. The proposed approach leads to address the question of fusing a default value with a piece of incomplete but certain information which may only partially contradict the default value.
