It seems this can be fixed by just keeping the first part of the config file
in the preinst. The attached patch fixes the piuparts error.
With this patch, piuparts still reports an error on lenny -> squeeze ->
wheezy, but that error seems to be related to the split of the nut package, so
I don't know if this is really an error or just a false positive...
Cheers,
Ivo
