Bug#927722: ipset: postinst unconditionally deletes conffile

[Sean Whitton]

Package: ipset
Version: 6.38-1
Severity: serious

Dear maintainer,

I noticed that ipset's postinst unconditionally deletes
/etc/bash_completion.d/ipset.  But the file might contain user
modifications.  Instead, assuming I'm not missing something,
dpkg-maintscript-helper(1) should be used to remove the obsolete file
only if the user has not modified it.  See Debian Policy 10.7.3.

Thanks.
