You can ask the debian-mentors list or irc channel for packaging related questions. I can also try to answer your questions privately off list, but in any case I think this sounds like an XY-question where you actually want to do something else than you are asking about. Please give more context for a better answer like: - which package is this about? - why do you need the files kept? - why are you not using a prerm maintainer script? Thanks! cheers, josch
