Package: bacula-director-mysql
Version: 1.36.1-1
Severity: normal

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or a misunderstanding on my part, but
when a director is purged, the /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf file is
removed, even if another director is installed.

I did have the bacula-director-sqlite package installed, and wanted to
move to bacula-director-mysql; I installed bacula-director-mysql, then
afterwards ran 'dpkg --purge bacula-director-sqlite' (basically as part
of a cleanup of my system). That's when I noticed that the director
config file had vanished.

Fortunately, I was able to recover it from an earlier (bacula-created!)
backup. :-)

Perhaps the 'purge' part of the package config should check to see if
there is another director installed and leave the bacula-dir.conf file
alone.

Cheers,
Chris Anderson.
