Bug#1029647: obsolete conffile not removed: /etc/bash_completion.d/dlocate-completion

[Sébastien Villemot <sebastien@debian.org>]

Package: dlocate
Version: 1.12
Severity: normal
User: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
Usertags: obsolete-conffile adequate

In version 1.08, the conffile /etc/bash_completion.d/dlocate-completion was
dropped.

However, the obsolete conffile is not properly clean up during the upgrade
(e.g. from bullseye to bookworm):

$ adequate dlocate
dlocate: obsolete-conffile /etc/bash_completion.d/dlocate-completion
$ dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}\n' dlocate | grep obsolete$
 /etc/bash_completion.d/dlocate-completion d92f268f1a6e213dcf116e0aaccc70a3 obsolete

Please use the dpkg-maintscript-helper support provided by
dh_installdeb to remove this obsolete conffile on upgrade.
