Updating config files: permissions!?



Hi *, 

During upgrades the slapd package (for example) has to do some
adjustments on config files (it asks the user for permission of course). 

Problem: How do I make sure the new config files have the same
permissions!? Currently I do

	chmod --reference=OLD NEW
	chown --reference=OLD NEW
	mv NEW OLD

but this will break with ACLs. And what happens with SELinux!? Can't
find anything in debian-policy about it, shouldn't we define that
handling?

Greetings

	Torsten
