Bug#2864: serious bug in amd!

Ouch, that shouldn't have happend.  I am not sure what triggered that
but I didn't include amd-master and amd-net, because amd is not usable
without further configuration, all the startup scripts need to do is
to check if they can either get a NIS map or if /etc/amd-master
exists.

The question is what happens to a conffile when the package is upgraded
and that file is no longer part of the new package?  Does dpkg delete it
without warning?
I will investigate that issue before uploading the next revision
(which is due because of an error in the postinst script).

Sorry about that,
  Dominik
