A couple of questions

[Shachar Shemesh <debian@shemesh.biz>]

two questions:
1. My package has a password file. Where is the best place to store it? 
/etc/name/password? /var/lib/name/password?
2. I have placed some file names into debian/conffiles. It seems, 
however, that all files under /etc are logically added to it as well. 
Files under /etc that I explicitly list as conffiles are listed twice on 
/var/lib/dpkg/info/name.conffiles after installation. This is not good, 
especially if option #1 above is taken. Can anyone explain why/how to 
stop the scripts from marking all files under /etc as configuration files?

thanks,
         Shachar
