There are certainly other ways to handle it, as Gergely points out, but it's not a bug as such. Policy explicitly allows for configuration files in /etc that are not conffiles and so aren't in the .deb and aren't listed in 'dpkg -S' output, so long as they follow the rules for how configuration files must be handled. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
