Hi Paul,

Thanks for the swift answer.

I checked in http://snapshot.debian.org/package/asciidoc/ and the
latest version I found a "wordpress" file in is 8.6.7-1. The 3
versions after (8.6.9-1, 8.6.9-2 and 8.6.9-3) do not contain it. (You
can check with a dpkg -c on each deb packages to verify)
:(

> According to the apt log, I upgraded from 8.6.9-2 to 8.6.9-3.

So I tried to install 8.6.9-2 to be sure, but no wordpress.conf file
were installed:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
$ sudo dpkg -i asciidoc_8.6.9-2_all.deb
Selecting previously unselected package asciidoc.
(Reading database ... 252370 files and directories currently installed.)

$ ll /etc/asciidoc/wordpress.conf
ls: cannot access /etc/asciidoc/wordpress.conf: No such file or directory
---------------------------------------------------------------------

So I tried the upgrade process from 8.6.7-1 (latest package I found
wordpress.conf file in) to 8.6.9-3 but still the file has been removed
during the upgrade process:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
$ sudo apt-get purge asciidoc
$ sudo dpkg -i asciidoc_8.6.7-1_all.deb
$ ll /etc/asciidoc/wordpress.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.9K Jun 29  2009 /etc/asciidoc/wordpress.conf
$ sudo apt-get upgrade asciidoc
...

$ dpkg -l asciidoc

Did you get it from an older version and modified it? (conf files
should not be removed automatically by the upgrade process if
modified)

I don't understand. I already use postinst/postrm/preinst debhelpers
files with the #DEBHELPER# token, I don't see how dh_installdeb would
help to get through this. I'll dig a bit this way.

Are you able to reproduce that issue it in any way?
Are you able to check the wordpress.conf file to see if you customized
it in any way please?

Thanks in advance,

Joseph
