Package: ucf
Version: 3.0025+nmu1
Severity: wishlist

When there are no historical md5sums, or the existing file ($destsum)
and the new file ($newsum) are identical, there is nothing to be done.
However, when FORCE_CONFNEW is set, ucf still says:

        echo >&2 "Replacing config file $dest_file with new version"
        echo >&2 "even though the files differ, since you asked for it"

which is a false claim.

It would be nice if that would not happen. On the other hand, it's a
nice reminder to populate the directory of old md5sums...

Regards, Frank
