Bug#517747: [Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#517747: libcupsys2: conffiles not properly (re)moved on upgrade

[Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>]

Hello Michael,

Michael Biebl [2009-03-01 21:42 +0100]:

That's strange. client.conf is not shipped at all any more, and
/etc/pam.d/cups (formerly /etc/pam.d/cupsys) is transitioned in
cups.preinst. Can you please show me the full output of dpkg -L, and
also dpkg -s libcupsys2? I assume those are just obsolete conffiles?

I can remove /etc/pam.d/libcupsys2 on upgrade, but I don't want to
remove /etc/cups/client.conf. I just somehow want to tell dpkg that
this is an obsolete conffile and should go into the hand of the
administrator..

Thank you,

Martin
