It seems that I expressed myself unclear, because several people (like
you) read from my sentences that I expect ucf to remove the
configuration files. This is not the case. I perfectly understand what
ucf --purge does.

Actually the point is what a random package should do if it is beeing
purged in order to undo what it has done on installation in the
corner-case when ucf is beeing removed.
