Close. What if you leave the package name as they really are, but provide the same dbname and dbuser in the config file of you (hypothetical) package? > Currently it seems to fail when the frontend package is purged, > confusing the other package.

It probably fails on the debconf templates being removed. > Note that I do not have that setup any more with my packages, so I donât > have a developing test case. But itâs still a nice to have item :-) So I think this bug can be closed as already supported. Would be great if somebody could check this (maybe I need a example package in this area). Paul
