Bug#840300: sddm: conffiles not marked in /usr/share thus cannot reliably customize
Package: sddm
Version: 0.13.0-1
Severity: normal
There are a lot of configuration files in /usr/share/sddm/* but edits will be
overridden after the upgrade.
Please consider writing them (at least some of them, such as
/usr/share/sddm/scripts/* and /usr/share/sddm/themes/*/*.conf.*) into
debian/conffiles, or patch upstream and let sddm accept multiple config files
(both in /etc/sddm/ and /usr/share/sddm).
That would greatly help those who want to customize sddm via config files.
Thanks!
