Do you mean things like #444666 and #444676? As far as I can see, there are two use cases here: People using acpid's scripts without changing them and people who love to mess around with their system. AFAICS just doing rm_conffile would only hit the former group (as modified files will stay 'round). Those are probably more likely not to be able to debug the resulting behaviour changes, so this seems like a less than ideal solution. Is there a reason not to continue shipping these files and then do the debconf dance post-lenny? Marc -- BOFH #77: Typo in the code
