4.7.4. Sharing configuration files
--
Only packages that are tagged _conflicting_ with each other may
specify the same file as `conffile'.
A package may not modify a conffile of another package.
Perhaps this last line should be changed to
Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.0.0.0
Severity: wishlist
Add the following section 5.4 as the next to last paragraph (i.e. before
the one beginning Since the Debian base system...).
A program may also use the VISUAL environment variable determine
the user's choice of editor. If

Note that having the current kernel header files installed in
