Configuration files should either be conffiles installed in the .deb or files created by the package at postinst/run time, but not both of these at the same time. So the .deb should not contain the files and they should get removed from disk by the prerm. Also you will need to transition them from conffiles to regular files, I don't know how to do that though. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
