I do not know as I had deleted my deb template to make space on my primary
drive. You might clone your existing (to be safe if you need anything from it)
and see if it does delete the original on reinstall. I do know my install
squawked because it detected that there was not an existing deb template
domain. However, the install ran anyway, so it may in fact delete the existing
domain.
