Some more debconf queries
OK, last time I was asking about editing conffiles in-place. Let's
assume that I do. Then, there are some issues:
* If my debconf scripts edit a conffile, will the user be presented
with a "replace this conffile" prompt at each upgrade?
If so, how can we work around this? Will the user know what to do?
* What happens if the user says 'yes' to replace the file? Does
debconf get rerun so that it can re-edit it with the values
from the database?
* And what if the user says 'no' but the file really has changed?
Debconf scripts might expect a different format/file/whatever.
