How to rename^wremove a ucf-conffile?
Hi,
after Paul was so kind to show me some sample code to rename an
ucf-conffile, I am now faced with the task of deleting an ucf-conffile
with a package update.
My first (untested) approach would be:
FILENAME="/etc/foo/bar.conf"
if [ -e "$FILENAME" ]; then
ucf --debconf-ok /dev/null $FILENAME
if [ -s "$FILENAME" ]; then
rm -f $FILENAME
fi
fi
ucfr --purge $PKGNAME $FILENAME
That way, the user would get an ucf prompt to replace the file with an
empty file, and if she decides to do this, the file would be entirely
removed. If she decides to keep her non-empty file, it would remain on
the system. In any case, it would be deregistered from ucf.
Did I miss a case?
Greetings
Marc
