Apparently there were different versions of the conffile between lenny and squeeze and therefore we'd need to check against a list of sha1 checksums. >> Assuming that dbus ignores configuration files files named *.dpkg-*, it >> seems un-necessary to fix the package to handle this upgrade (assuming >> that that is where this version of the file even came from), so I'm >> closing the bug. It's correct that dbus only reads .conf files. So you won't have any negative side effects appart from some junk laying around on your system. I guess we need a clean up code for the clean up code, to properly remove the wrongly renamed .dpkg-remove files. Michael
