Hey.
Clarifying on this:
With "clean up" I didn't mean "remove"... ;-)
AFAICS, the two files are now contained in util-linux-extra (again as
conffiles).
On a Debian sid system of mine (that I typically upgrade every day - so
it got every version in between installed),... the files are in fact
*only* registered as conffiles for util-linux-extra, and don't show up
as obsoletes.
However, on one system that I upgraded few days ago from bullseye to
bookworm I get:
# dpkg -S /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh /etc/default/hwclock
util-linux-extra: /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh
util-linux-extra: /etc/default/hwclock
=> ok, still good
but:
# dpkg-query --showformat='${Package}\n${Conffiles}\n' --show
...
util-linux

/etc/init.d/hwclock.sh c06bc68c12cbdd9c7f60ba25ee587efe
util-linux-locales
...
So for some reason it's still registered to both as conffile.
I always though, dpkg -S would show that, too.
Cheers,
Chris.
