Source: network-manager
Version: 1.2.2-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I did an apt purge network-manager and I was left with some files in /etc and a 
warning
from dpkg.

/etc/NetworkManager/
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/tun0
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/tun0-15aac2ec-a0e8-4790-8c59-7f43a0814413

I don't think those files should be left there after purge.

Those are explicit user configuration files. I don't really want to
purge them automatically. And a debconf prompt is overkill. So I guess
I'll just leave it as is (the user is warned by dpkg that the directory
can't be removed because there are some files left and the user can
decide what to do about them.
