Package: debconf
Version: 1.5.28
Severity: normal
i installed a package that upon installation did ask, if a changed
config file should be replaced.
i declined the request, because i had made some changes.
now i decided to reset the config file to its default state, the eaisest
way being to simply do a reinstall of the package -- which to my
surprise did _not_ pop the question again.
the next idea was using
dpkg-reconfigure ...
but neither -phigh nor -plow (and i confess, i never really grasped what
means what and how it is determined) did produce the question again.
i'd expect those managemant tools to basically offer the same options
like a new installation or upgrade of a package does.

Description:
ucf - Update Configuration File(s): preserve user changes to config fil

Changes:
ucf (3.0029) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* When asking how to handle an upodate to a locally modified
configuration file, ucf does not tell the user where the new version
of the configuration file lives. This makes it hard to take action
when opening a new shell. This commit updates the debconf templates to
include that information. (Closes: #616486, #747295, #747299)
(Closes: #747310, #747312, #747335, #747346, #747371, #747450)
(Closes: #747533, #748148, #748178, #748371).
* ucf uses getopt(1) to process command line arguments. The debug
options take a an optional level. For short options, If the option has
an optional argument, it must be written directly after the option
character if present. For long options, the optional argument must be
written directly after the long option name, separated by `=', if
present. This is now documented in the manual page.
* Document that ucf --purge can be used to make ucf forget about the
state of the previous decisions for a configuration file, so that when
the package is updated or reinstalled, ucf will ask again about
disposition, (Closes: #566277).
