Bug#2886: Xbase asks confusing question about config files



Package: xbase
Version: 3.1.2-8

When installing this package, I was asked the following question:

The version of the Debian xbase package that you are installing
has many new configuration files. Would you like to save a copy
of your old configuration files? [yn]

The message doesn't make it clear what will happen if I type `n'; will
it not install its new config files, or will it just destroy my old
ones and blat the new ones over the top?
