Initial "lb config" and "lb clean --purge"
Hello.
If you start from "scratch" running of "lb config" will create on sid
the directory structure with "empty" auto/ and default settings in config/

root@sid:/tmp/live/xxx# ls -l auto/ config/

As there are no config, clean and build scripts in auto/ at this time,
running "lb clean --purge" can *not* remove any config files from
config/ (binary, bootstrap, chroot, common, source).
It is confusing for newcomers. They do "lb clean --purge" but it doesn't
really remove config files from config/. I guess, that it would save a
lot of questions on the list if initial "lb config" would create config,
clean and build scripts in auto/.
Just my "two cents".
regards, Mark
