As far as link 2 is concerned, it is down because of
https://db.debian.org/machines.cgi?host=glinka
But anyways, if you have debhelper installed, then you can read the
manpage on it
$ man dh_installdeb

While I'm not a programmer, I did find
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?dist=unstable;tag=obsolete-conffile;users=debian...@lists.debian.org#_4_3_5
OR/and
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?dist=unstable;tag=obsolete-conffile;users=debian...@lists.debian.org#_4_4_5
All of the bugs which are resolved therein are the same obsolete
conffile issues.
The hard work that you will have to do would involve is probably
finding which of the packages is similar to yours, finding the commits
which resolved the issue and applying the same/similar at your end.
If you do put up a patch, please share it as well as the way to
use/apply the patch and I'll try and apply it and see if the situation
resolves.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

Are you hoping to have them in before freeze ?

That is testing upgrades from old packages, correct? debian/rules went
through some iterations to ensure it installs in the correct place:
# add tab completion by Deepayan
#install -m 0644 debian/R.bash_completion \
# debian/$(corepackage)/etc/bash_completion.d/R

Well yes, link 1 explains what a config file it, link 2 is currently dead.
But the pointer to dpkg-maintscript-helper is appreciated. Did not know that
one.

Do you have a recommended code snippet for a upgrade of these files?
Else I grep on my system for some other postinst files and do likewise for
dpkg-maintscript-helper.
R 3.3.2 is coming soon so we'll have rc releases to work this out.

Bug#840506: r-base-core: adequate reports obsolete conffile for r-base-core
Package: r-base-core
Version: 3.3.1-1+b2
Severity: normal
User: debian...@lists.debian.org

Dear Maintainer,
Adequate reported obsolete conffiles. See -
[$] adequate r-base-core
r-base-core: obsolete-conffile /etc/bash_completion.d/R
As pabs (Paul Wise) has shared in #815563 the proper thing to do would be to -
use the dpkg-maintscript-helper support provided by dh_installdeb
to remove these obsolete conffiles on upgrade.
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-config-files
http://manpages.debian.org/man/1/dh_installdeb
I ran the same command as he did -
┌─[shirish@debian] - [~] - [422]
└─[$] pkg=r-base-core ; adequate $pkg ; dpkg-query -W
-f='${Conffiles}\n' $pkg | grep obsolete
r-base-core: obsolete-conffile /etc/bash_completion.d/R
/etc/bash_completion.d/R 086c63e5f408e1954ad23bee981e0dc6 obsolete
Look forward to getting this fixed soonish.
