Hi Mentors, I need help.
My package cannot be upgraded from current version to latest version -- https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=995769 It might have something to do with obsoleted conffile files or it might even not. The problem is, I've been trying to understand how the conffile files work, and I think I'm doing the right thing, yet my package cannot be properly upgraded. - I don't understand what breaks and why, from the output of the package upgrade log (see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=995769). - Thus, I have no idea how to fix it, and all my previous attempts failed. So, Please help. The package source is at: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dbab/ Also, I've been trying to solve it on my own for so long that now the good version in testing is marked for autoremoval, for the reason that: > If a package is out of sync between unstable and testing for a longer period, this usually means that bugs in the package in testing cannot be fixed via unstable. However, this is not true in my case. So if I still cannot fix the problem by myself by the deadline, would I be able to at least stop my package being autoremed from testing?
