Package: blosxom Version: 2.1.2-1 Severity: wishlist During the upgrade from etch to lenny, I noticed that blosxom's preinst took quite some time. This machine is not really terribly quick, and dpkg-query takes a few seconds to run each time. Rather than calling it fifteen times for each of fifteen different configuration files, perhaps you could save the output of "dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}' blosxom" in a shell variable, and then just repeatedly run sed over that shell variable? That should be a lot faster.
(Yes, I know that the rm_conffile function is just the usual one that people copy around from package to package. It should be OK to modify it, though; I did essentially what I'm suggesting above in openssh.)
