Hi, When upgrading a Debian package the package is NOT allowed to silently make changes to config files. You should get a question about whether you want to keep your file, replace with the new, diff them or escape to a shell. When you return from the diff or the shell, you should come back to the same question again if my memory serves me right. If a package is making changes to a config file without your approval, that is a bug.
