Understandable.
Actually I have come to the conclusion that you're probably
encountering a dpkg bug. If I install package N over package O and N
replaces some files of O, these files should be removed from O's list
of files. That should be true even for conffiles and when O is in the
'conffiles' state (removed-not-purged).
Could you check what /var/lib/dpkg/info/webmin.{list,conffiles}
contains after webmin-ssl has been installed over webmin? Neither
files should have one of the replaced files in them.
