Upon purging a package, it is expected that all installed data should be removed. The package "diogenes" installs a MySQL database and a MySQL user by prompting the user via debconf for the admin user/password.
I want to give users the possibility to remove that database and user when the package is purged. However, this means knowing the MySQL admin password at removal time. What is the best way to go as it is probably a very bad idea to keep the admin user/password stored in debconf's database? Many thanks in advance!
