It should be "rm -f DEBIAN/conffiles" or it fails for sarge.

The update.sh script already is ment for that purpose. In fact is is
ment to go into a cron job to be run automatically and possibly for
/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/ with some timestamp check.

Yeah, the .gnupg directory of the user is probably not the most
accessible place. :) Added to my ToDo.

I hope I will find the time to work on it somemore, to finish the cron
job and add some auto configuring and debconf questions to it
(e.g. suggest only doing sarge on a sarge system).
