Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.67-5
Severity: normal
Hi
just after upgrade I got following error:
DEBCONFsomethingDEBCONF found in exim configuration. This is most probably
caused by you upgrading to exim4 4.67-3 or later without accepting the
suggested conffile changes. Please read
/usr/share/doc/exim4-config/NEWS.Debian.gz for 4.67-2 and 4.67-4
As I was not aware of any unsuccesful config updates, I was a bit
confused about NEWS hints. However at the end it turned out to be more
problem in script than in my config - it greps over all files in
/etc/exim4/conf.d. This means that it processes lots of files which are
otherwise ignored by update-exim4.conf. In my case it was some
*.dpkg-old lefover from past.
Maybe the config check should use some search logic as rest of the
script?

Feature. You might be explicitly including things that would be left
out by ue4.conf

If you do not feel comfortable with removing the leftover from the
past to get rid of the warning, I'd like to suggest using the override
mechanism that is implemented in ue4.conf.

I do not feel comfortable with adding just another level of complexity.
