Control: tag -1 + moreinfo

Hi Holger,

I'm having problems reproducing this. I just tried upgrading in pristine
wheezy VMs
   (a) with libcap2-bin
   (b) with libcap2-bin + libpam-cap installed,

and I didn't encounter this issue.

if _only_ libcap2-bin is installed, then /etc/security/capability.conf
is superfluous, so this shouldn't be an issue.

OK, but in this case, we don't have libcap2-bin, but libcap2-bin +
libpam-cap instead.

This is the part that puzzles me. capability.conf only gets
rm_conffile'd in the most recent version, but in none of my tests
does this trigger the above.

I'll need to investigate some more...
